Not just because I no longer watch the show but because TPTB have made it very clear that the current couples, which I despise, are end game, so any "cliffhangers" are meaningless. There will be much angst and wailing and gnashing of teeth among those who feel their ship is in peril, but it's all contrived. TPTB have settled on a stable, comfortable standard romcom formula and they aren't going to change it. I had some hope last season when Sheldon temporarily escaped from his relentless predator but they undid everything from the finale in the first episode of the next season. Fool me once..........
They've already told us how the game ends so why bother watching if I know I won't like the outcome?
My feelings exactly. I voted "Something boring..." The show has been one disappointment after another for the past 5 years. Why should I expect any different this time round? As I have said many times before, this show has used the same formula for years: nothing ground-breaking happens the whole of the season, then they do something that looks relatively game-changing in the finale (probably because people complain that things are stagnant, predictable and boring which is true) only to revert back to the same ole in the new season
