I think that's to be expected, I would like a proper send off though, I feel like if there even is a next one it would be the last, considering the reason it's postponed appears to be internal disagreements (according to DeepL) so it seems like they're not able to do what they want anymore, and I don't think they'll be able to do so in the future (whatever it's because of age or regulation.)

Las Vegas kind of felt like an attempt at one, it featured a lot of past clips with the betting essentially being a clip show, but it really wasn't up to a "final" episode. I remember the betting made up most of the show was really boring to be honest, maybe a Batsu with some callback gags could be better, maybe not as a straight up 1:1 of those gags, but adapted somehow?
