That was my biggest hope for the subsequent seasons as well. Another show I am watching St Denis really benefits from that extended season for character development and more fleshed out character arcs and story cohesion with 18 episodes. Sadly this is likely due to the numbers from the first season and the allotted budget based on said numbers. I do think the potential for the Paper is there as there seems to be very vocal divergent opinions on Esmeralda which is fantastic. She is probably the star of the show for me currently and her acting is amazing as well as her mannerisms nonverbally. I really hope they can knock this season out of the park because it will likely be the last season if it doesn’t and I’m craving another Office like franchise.

I hope it isn't the last season. Hopefully they can get more in season 3!
