to commit to two services up front and decide on the third season halfway through the first if they want IPs to thrive. Otherwise interest wanes during the droughts and people move on to other IPs. Then launch the third season in close proximity to the second. It’s a nice recipe that will work - the lone exception being Amazon’s Rings of Power which cost ridiculous amounts of money for such poor quality return.

As I grew up in the 70s when people naturally had to wait between one series and another, I have patience. I think this is in mortal danger these days when everything has to be now, now, now or people loose interest, whether it’s Amazon rather than having to go to a shop, McDonalds rather than home cooking, supermarket “bread” rather than making it yourself … or Foundation Series 2 not following about a month or two after the end of Series 1.
Some things are worth waiting for. I firmly believe that Foundation is one of them.
severance is great too.

Getting all the actors on location on the same schedule, scripts read, sets built can easily take a week per episode. That's 10 weeks of shooting per season. Then huge amounts of post-production per episode, easily another 10 weeks.
TV show Supernatural crew said 2 weeks per episode turnaround:

Best case they'd be able to do it in 6 months but given the location filming and size of the crew on location, I'm not surprised it's a year between seasons. It mentions 18-19 months for season one at the following site and it was suspended for 7 months for Covid so it looks like they have around a 12 month production cycle:

They plan to do 8 seasons so it will be 2029 when the last season airs:
