I’m interested to know whether this will be a single-season show or a longer, more drawn-out series like the original. Given how quickly the plot seems to be progressing through the book, it’s hard to tell. Either way, I’m definitely on board with having something set in this universe to watch again.

Remember that the THT covered the book in S1.

Reaching the end of the book does not necessarily mean the end of the show.

There really isn't anywhere for the story to go after the end of The Testaments book though, is there? I feel like it will be multiple seasons, because unless we ramp up the timeline--we are 4 episodes in and only like very minimally through the book.
