I was thinking about that, so yes if they had been planning on wrapping this whole thing up after 13 episodes, then some of the pacing and other thing makes sense to me. I don't know when during the production process that they got the green light for more episodes or seasons, but I guess that makes it difficult to re-work a lot of what they had already done. Getting a do-over for the last 2 episodes they could have made some improvements so this could flow into a continuing series, but I am not sure how much the actors would want to commit to this show either - Isaacs, Yeoh, Jones, I am sure prefer movies than doing a TV series.
