Perhaps my beef is totally fair. I do hope that the subsequent season of The Last of Wolfs is nice however I additionally hope that the folks making it are being handled pretty. So in that manner, maybe this delay is in everybody’s finest pursuits. Although none of that’s talked about within the ridiculously obscure announcement launched as we speak. So…
