COVID-compliant filming for the third season officially commenced in the fall of 2020. The delayed production time table saved Aidy away from her function at SNL all over that point. It took every other few months for a free up date to be introduced. 

In January of 2021, Variety reported that the show would conclude with Season 3. No respectable reason was given for the news at the time, even though many suspected that the pandemic performed a task in the determination.

We have this story that we wrote potentially to go onward but now it's ending and how can we try and make that satisfying through editing?'" Aidy said in an interview with Deadline. "I think, very luckily, we're super happy with it as an ending, and we really like how it landed in this more realistic place, as opposed to feeling like we had to tie it up in this perfect bow and give Annie this beautiful sunset."

The actress then referred to the finale as "authentic."

Though Aidy, Ali, and Lindy are pleased with the final episode, they did have an concept of where the tale can have gone had the display been renewed for a fourth season. 

"It would be more of Annie trying to deal with her having been canceled, that situation with the article that she wrote, and trying to just do what’s right after that," Ali defined to Deadline. "I guess seeing where her relationship with Will was going to go, if it was going to be long-term or if that was going to be it, and also seeing what happened with Fran and Em as well."
