It appears that Mimi Rogers will be back and her character will be a lead. Her and Bosch will be working together on a case/cases.
My hopes aren't too high considering it will be IMDBTV but any more Bosch is good to have.

I guess on IMDB TV they are actually getting ad revenue now to help pay for the show and actually make money.
I know a lot of you guys hate commercials and don't watch ad supported streaming services, but if it helps keep it on the air, why not?

Good point. I imagine an 8th season would’ve required new contracts and salary increases. So maybe this was a compromise that benefits everyone by going the ad supported route.

Actually make money? Isn't that what my annual Prime membership fee is for? Putting Amazon original content outside of Prime Video degrades the value of Prime Video, not to mention looks like a sneaky way to effectively add commercials to Prime Video content.

Bosch is entering the 7th season and all the talent contracts as dex said were set to expire. It would have been much more expensive to keep it on Prime and have to give talent and crew raises. This is likely a compromise to keep it on in a another form while earning revenue as well.

While Honey Chandler was a character that didn't survive the only book she was in, this does at least sort of mimic what Harry did after he was too old to be a detective. It's too bad they can't use Haller.

This confuses me though. I know Amazon is trying to make IMDB tv a thing but Bosch has been, far and away, their most successful property. Keep it on Prime for fucks sake!
Edit: the contract thing makes sense, though.

As long as it is available on Prime, I can deal with commercials.
I found L.A. Law post-S3 through IMDB on Prime (though missing some eps) - was happy for that.

It's apparently a business decision. The costs would be astronomical (or more than what Amazon wants to pay), because everyone would get a giant pay raise (contractually, too) after each season. By moving it to a "different network" the pay structure resets and the spin-off becomes affordable.

If it keeps Bosch on the air and enables everyone to get a raise, I'll endure a few commercials.

Welliver posted a photo from the set of the spin-off. Looks like they are at work. Instagram links are dead here once again, so you'll have to click on it.
Just started the final season.

I see the thread title was updated. Connelly just announced on social media the title of the spin-off
