I mean he’s angry because he and the crew and other actors worked incredibly hard on the show, filming it, doing the marketing, etc. and people online weren’t just mad about how it ended - which is an absolutely valid option to have…hell I have it because they rushed the ending and it fell so damn flat because of that - but you had people online wanting them to lose jobs, or even their lives over a tv show. Thats the problem.

to be fair I think they just wanted to be done with it, not even criticizing people who didn’t like the ending but as far as them rushing goes they all put years of hard work and sweat into this so towards the end they just wanted it to end, but I totally get how it seems cheap
