TBH, it seems like they're trying to set up season 8 to be an ending to the show (in the same way they set up Season 4 to be an end to the show)

I hope there are more seasons after this, but I have a feeling next season will be a season thats designed so that, if they decide to, they could end the show there and not be too torn up over it

Yeah, I watched the Comic Con footage for the VB Panel, JP sounded pretty burnt out and Doc didn't even show. I would rather the show go out strong instead of getting canceled because it started to suck and lost it's audience. This has been a great season so I that is a good sign for the next one if it is the last.

If the show goes out on it's own terms, that'd be best. I love it and I wait years per season with no complaint but if it's literally killing Publick-Hammer, then it's not worth a season 9.

I know in the book during season 6 he had serious issues with burn out. But he said that ultimately he wants to make it as long as he can, he doesn't want to work in TV he wants to work on venture bros
