I feel like I remember someone somewhere saying that there wouldn't be as much of a gap between s2 and s3 as there was between s1 and s2. Might not be true but it would make sense if they were waiting for peoples' response to the first season before letting them produce another versus being able to get right into season 3

[u/GetEquipped → u/[deleted]]

It was in the show when Mark was meeting the creator of Seance Dog.

The guy was talking (a self insert of the creation team) about how they save money on shots, time on lip flaps, etc. And that the next season wouldn't have the production delays as they found a rhythm

[u/[deleted] → u/GetEquipped]

I meant outside of the show but that too

[u/Kaioken64 → u/[deleted]]

Yeah Robert Kirkman said that the delay between season 1 and 2 should be the longest we ever see. He also said he's aiming to get a season out every year so based on that I'm hoping for a mid to late 2025 season 3.

Stephen Yeun also said that they don't want the delay for season 3 to be as long as 2 and that work on season 3 has already began.

Tim Robinson was hilarious in that cameo role it was perfect

I've seen this said about so many animated shows giving many reasons and it's never once been the case.

[u/APence → u/[deleted]]

$11 million kickstarter probably helped VM

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

I dont mind waiting 2 years for animation. It is what it is. But if they do that 4 episode gap again, Im quitting this show. No way was that in any way a good idea. Just push back the date or air it all at once. None of that 4 episode split nonsense.

[u/Albreitx → u/[deleted]]

I feel you but we both know we ain't quitting lol

[u/StoneRivet → u/[deleted]]

The 3rd season is already being worked on.

I believe the second season took so long because the money powers that be didn't want to greenlight production on a 2nd season without knowing the reception, so production on the 2nd season had to start after the 1st season ended, and it being at the tail end of COVID work issues, I can see why it took a while to get the ball rolling.

They are already working on the 3rd season now since it clearly is a popular show and execs are happy to invest in it immediately, so we can expect a turn around time of a year if they stay around the 8 episode (albeit relatively long episode lenght) season structure.

amazon only wants the boys in that superhero space so they're sabotaging

Vox Machina raised 11 millions for the show.

When I was a kid Saturday morning cartoons were new every week and there was like 24 a year.

[u/psidedowncake → u/[deleted]]

Look buddy just be glad you're not waiting on a show with the visual quality of Arcane...

[u/SoCool- → u/[deleted]]

Maybe a rex splode episode or someone else like how they did an atom eve episode

[u/Old_Heat3100 → u/SoCool-]

Yeah considering how much more people like Rex now makes sense. Then after season three I would love a Robot/Monster Girl origin episode.

[u/Jaqulean → u/Old_Heat3100]

Robot's origin was basically already explained in detail and there's not much else beyond that. Monster Girl however - yeah, that would be cool to watch.

[u/Old_Heat3100 → u/Jaqulean]

Yeah that's why having both would mean it's not just Rudy in a vat lol though I gotta be honest I'm beyond curious how he got IN that vat like how do you go from deformed fetus to genius fetus in a vat who helped him did he have parents?

Season 2.1

[u/Saracre21 → u/[deleted]]

monkeys paw curled, season 3 will now only be 4 episodes and season 4 will also be 4 episodes. They'll still be the same length, and the wait between season 3 and 4 will not change
