Following this mother-son legal dramedy’s untimely demise, series creator Scott Prendergast spilled every last bean to TVLine, revealing what the next five (yes, five!) seasons would have held for Todd and Margaret’s inner circle. A quick summary couldn’t possibly do the full interview justice, but here are a few key bullet points: Folding would have been the Big Bad of Season 3, with producers eyeing Joe Pantoliano to play the oft-mentioned partner; Todd and Judy would remain a couple for about three more seasons, but she would ultimately leave for Thailand, and Todd would marry someone else; Allison would join the family business, becoming a forensic pathologist and medical examiner, and aiding in more cases; Susan would leave the firm, but she would return to defend Margaret when Folding succeeded in framing her, possibly also leading to a romantic reunion with Todd.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Our full interview includes additional nuggets like wanting Amy Sedaris to play Beverly’s wife, and which of Margaret’s sons would officiate her wedding to Gus. (Seriously, he told us a lot.)
