The wait times between seasons of streaming shows have been steadily increasing in recent years, withLove, Death & Robotsfollowing the pattern of many other shows. It is far from the only Netflix series that has seen wait times increase, but there are a few clear reasons why this is the case forLove, Death & Robots.Love, Death & Robots' long wait timewas in part due tothe SAG-AFTRA strikes that occurred in the summer and fall of 2023, which stopped production on most projects.
In addition to strikes that were beyond the control of the individuals working on the show,Love, Death & Robotsseason 4 may have had an extended hiatus, as animated projects can take longer to produce than live-action ones. Animation is an art that should not be rushed for the best results, and because the series is so known for its high quality and originality,it would have been a shame to release anything before it was perfected. The three-year gap allowed those involved in the project to that the time needed to do great work.
