When revolutionary Dr. Hari Seldon predicts the impending fall of the Empire, he and a band of loyal followers venture to the far reaches of the galaxy to establish The Foundation in an attempt to rebuild and preserve the future of civilization. Enraged by Hari's claims, the ruling Cleons – a long line of emperor clones – fear their grasp on the galaxy may be weakening as they're forced to reckon with the potential reality of losing their legacy forever.

Not when it's a year and a half or more between seasons! How long can post production possibly take? It's an APPLE show! Who has more computers and nerds than APPLE?! This new era of streaming television is killing me. 5 seasons? That's like 8-10 years of real time, most of it spent waiting. At some point, I'm going to have to start worrying about dying before I find out how a show ends!
I love your last line. Made me laugh.

The first showrunner who left midway season 3 wanted to make 8 seasons. The question is wat apple/skydance/the new showrunners want. I think 8 would be stretching it, but I wouldn't say "no". Realistically I see 4, 5 or max 6 seasons.
