If they're confident about having 3 seasons total, I could see splitting up TLG into 12 episodes and giving some of that time to the stories in the other books. (And by the other books I mostly mean Role Model.)

But only if they are VERY confident of getting renewed, because the fandom would not survive if we ended S2 on a plane incident cliffhanger.

(That said, my reading of "signed for three seasons" is that three seasons is a pretty standard streaming contract and that it's less about the promise of renewing the show and more about locking in actors' salaries while they don't have any negotiating power.)

I do wish this season had more episodes. And that more than one more season was confirmed. I like the idea of the long Shane/Ilya story with everyone else's folded in chronologically but I think it would be easier to pull off with more overall time to tell it

I didn't hate how The Long Game ended but I have some reservations. Which would make it really interesting to have the show go on past the books (potentially the opposite of Game of Thrones)

Yes to all of that, Jess. I shudder to think.

If there is more time, then I hope we get at least some of Tough Guy, along with Role Model.
