Jo and Martin visit the burnt down Inn | Mary Stuart Search for Tomorrow
I'd never watched this scene but it's such a clear meta statement of CBS canceling the show and NBC picking it up. That also helps explain why Mary Stuart is so emotional here compared to how stoic her Jo often is.
I guess I get the idea, but I still don't think they should have gotten rid of the place just for that reason.
(maybe with a smaller NBC budget or studio space, if it was smaller, they had to let this set go)
Surprising that they don't try to go golly gosh and instead admit that nothing will ever be as good or the same, but they just have to move on. And that is probably how many fans felt about the move, even if those last 5 years had some strong moments.
That makes me curious - would you rather the show have ended in early 1982 or are you glad they had those extra years?
