Give Fincher his Mindhunter budget.

I think that show actually lives or dies on Fincher's whim, not Netflix's.

He's already said there wont be a season 3 because it's way too time consuming for him and he's an insane perfectionist with control problems and can't just delegate others to oversee it.

Yea remember that, lol. 'Too time consuming' says the man who held up an entire crew and a legion of extras to do 70 takes of a backyard cookout that made less than minute of screentime in the final edit of season 2.

Oh, I thought they'd gotten into a budget squabble. In this case-- come on, Fincher!

They didn’t let it die. They are willing to do a third season but fincher is very busy so they are waiting on him. It’s his baby so are not gonna do it without him.

They had to release the cast. You can’t keep cast members on a contract indefinitely for the rest of time. Netflix have done nothing wrong in this scenario.

And from interviews I think the cast would be open to returning if season 3 happens. It’s Fincher after all.
