What a good send off to a season. I want to hope for a second season but even if we don't get one, this had got to be one of the most eye opening works anyone made in a while. And we can't be mad about not getting more because it's still perfect as it is.

He is not dead. We know this because Death told him he would die on a rolling chair. We can also guess that he isn't dead because a lot of the characters on the bus didn't really die, like Bob and Jason, or like Trudy Goodman (we see her later in jail in an episode where Clancy interviewed Jason, so we know she didn't die). if there will be a second season, it's likely that he is still alive (and hopefully doing well)

Life could possibly not end when the body is gone.

This ending is just beautiful

Watching this was like being given a big cool glass of pure water after wandering a parched desert, semi conscious from dehydration, It filled me up to the brim and when Clancy turns to the soul bird in ep 5 and whispers the truth .. “it’s hopeless”.I felt the tears well and for the first time in many years I cried like a baby. A happy cry. 🥺 We all choke on the truth, or the saying we all gag on true doctrine is a real thing. Midnight Gospel succeeds where most fail. That success is the ability to filter and condense complex ancient and universal truths, and convert them into simple, inclusive, humorous and intimate

I watched this in 2021 when I was going through alot of tough and rough times, I lost friends due to suicide but this show helped me get through the heartbroken times.. made me realize that the sayings of "just be here now" is just a word to keep you moving and live in the current time set meaning present time,.

As much as I would love a second season of this show I personally think the ending of season one is perfect Even if the show quietly got cancelled I’m fine with what we got not every cartoon needs to last long in order for it to work (I don’t mind long runners) sometimes one season is all you need (over the garden wall is another example of this)

I distinctly hope that anyone saying 'this show changed me' doesn't fall into the sticky trap of becoming a new age liberal who thinks all the world's problems can be solved with meditation and forgiveness. You can't live like that. You can't. You'll go nuts. You'll hurt people either through passive aggression or by contributing to systemic injustice. Keep learning and keep growing and keep your mind open. Really open. Don't just call yourself a free thinker. Be curious and be moral and don't be afraid to fight.

Just be here now.. probably the most impactful statement ive heard in my 24 years of life

Honestly... this show changed a lot of my perspective. There's no true essence of me, my emotions are important, listen to your thoughts, give up to hope... many many stuff. Life itself doesn't have a true meaning... the only thing to do is to be present. ...yes. This show made me face myself, I opened my heart more, shared my opinions... I am not closed anymore. I am not afraid anymore. Thank you Duncan. Thank you Pendleton. My regards for changing people's lives, with mine, too.

What a trip this show was (no pun intended). Even though we’re not getting another season I’m just glad the show existed.

I always cry when I say "am I dead" with Clancy. Ive died so many times and life was never done with me. To say it on a infinity bus next to a old friends makes me want to. Ever since my first enlightenment it's been really hard to cry but I wish I could.

death tells clancy that he will die in a rolling chair, a bus can be interpreted as a rolling chair there is this key, death never tells him that it is a desk chair and also that we will never really know if we are dead because the phrase from end just stay here and now

i think Clancy is now apart of the simulation like the others hence why he isn't dead or alive because just like all the other character's he interviewed they all died but are still alive. Clancy whole body goes inside of the simulation and that never happened before so maybe doing that caused him to actually be apart of the simulation now? hopefully that makes sense.
