The show ran into issues with distribution rights. SyFy didn’t want to keep funding it because the views were from next day streaming rather than live broadcast. SyFy made less (or nothing?) from the streams.

Amazon bought the rights and funded the final season, but didn’t continue the because the viewership wasn’t huge and they were funding Rings of Power instead.

at least that’s my vague recollection from 8 years agot

Haha no. If he can’t recite the most esoteric, inane facts in an unending chain of blather

Good to know you’ll have a flashing red light if he ever starts to develop dementia

A linear story is split in two parts. 

The black and white sections explain Leonard’s backstory and show that he’s willing to lie to himself to be happy just like his wife was willing to lie to him because she was unhappy.

The color section is revealing the consequences of Teddy using Leonard, but also Leonard’s willingness to lie to himself.

The special edition DVD had it recut in a linear fashion. It works both ways… linear is a standard detective story without much depth. Recut, it’s a compelling story about Truth and consequences
