What are they going to do if the series ends up being canceled midway through its series run? Shows that have started with a strong ratings ended up with weaker ratings as the series went on because of weak storylines during a third or fourth season.
Just look at shows like Farscape, Sliders, Star Trek Enterprise, Firefly which were quality shows but ended up being canceled because of low ratings despite the fact they had strong ratings or a strong plotline.
I expect that this series may last at least three seasons but anything beyond five seasons is really stretching it a bit. The only show to have survived an extended period of time is the Stargate SG-1 series which is being rumored as possibly taking it to a 10th season.
