Your Alternate Ending Spoiler
If you could choose how the show ends, what would you change? Anything? Nothing? Everything? I honestly don’t know how I expected it to end but transcendence was not it!

I think most people would agree to cut out season 7.
I think the traveling to Sanctum is fine considering Earth became inhabitable again, so I would have played on the struggles of adapting to trying to survive on a new, unknown planet to the group. Could lead into a sequel of future descendants trying to make it back to Earth after x amount of years.
Personally, if I was a writer for the show since they didn't follow the books much, I would have adapted it to end it with the second death wave and Monty and Harper's video. It would have left a huge cliffhanger, but it would have given the audience more to think about and the possibilities of what the group would be like had the story continued. What happened to Clarke? Did she survive? Where did the crew end up? Will they survive on this new planet (moon)? Maybe there's a time-skip and the future generations travel back to Earth to find out Clarke and other Nightbloods did survive and they were able to make something out of the rubble for their future descendants?
Think that could have given the writers more time to create a more intriguing and narrative driven sequel or continuation of the show rather than "Human bad. Can't transcend."
