Mike expressed his thoughts to The Hollywood Reporter before the final episode, during a cover story on White Lotus, regarding potential future seasons. “I’m thankful I get to continue working on it,” he said. “That’s my aim. However, everything will always be judged against something else. There’s a critic who remains unnamed, and they seem to say, ‘It’s not as good as the last one,’ even if they didn’t care for the previous installment!” he added. “I’ve certainly received enough compliments, so it might be beneficial for me to have some folks question, ‘Was that necessary?’

However, castmembers Schwarzenegger, Monaghan, Nivola and Bibb notably did not score noms.
