I've heard it's a popular TV series. Never watched it myself, more of an American Dad fan.

Thank goodness, I hate it when series run pointlessly for ever. 8 seasons sounds about right.

The 6th and 7th books have not been released (or even written as I suspect).

You're in for a massive treat

So sad it's ending. I just hope it ends in such a way that there is closure. Should not leave us hanging.
