IMHO they’ll tank the show and eat the loss rather than back-down on their great act of virtue signaling.
How are they going to bring her character back? They killed it off.
I would suggest this...if they lose a a third of their audience numbers from last season (which I think is possible by the third episode)...then they might allow it to got through to May with the full time of episodes on the contract, then cancel it. Zero chance that they can maintain the same numbers...it’s basically designed as some drama-comedy, which no one has the humor/charm to carry the show.
