For Che Diaz, this could be the end of the road. On January 17, it was reported that Sara Ramirez would not be returning for Season 3 of This Is It... with an insider telling the Daily Mail that their character had been "given up." Naturally, people on Reddit are speculating about what this could mean for season three.
Neither the producers nor Ramirez have confirmed the rumor, although Ramirez hinted at being removed from the show on Instagram while also criticizing their characters. "It's crazy how many people in Hollywood are acting," they wrote. "Even more performative than the last role I played."
Fans are divided over Che's potential departure, but one user believes it supports fan theories that season three will begin with a five-year time jump. "Which makes me believe we will actually get a season 3 in five years," the fan wrote. “Or 4.5 years, let’s get ready for Aidan’s big return (again).”
Why time jumps make sense
A significant time jump would not only allow the show to easily cancel Cut, but also fast-forward to Aidan's ultimatum to Carrie in the Season 2 finale, promising that once his sons complete their mission, they Can be together within five years. grown up. Some fans think producers may have wanted her to return to Aidan sooner rather than have Kelly explore the dating world again as a widow.
"I feel like they won't allow Carrie to date anyone else, they feel the need to keep her with Aidan," one fan wrote. "How else could they have spent five years with Carrie on ice and now Miranda’s only storyline is gone?”
Some commenters agreed, with one user even suggesting how the writers could address the time jump in the premiere. "My money is on the first episode of season 3 where Kelly snaps her fingers and narrates 'Five years have passed... and that's it,'" one user wrote.
However, others believe the show will pick up where it left off and history repeats itself. "I think they're going to let her find a 'big' love interest and then have her do the same thing to good old Aidan," one fan commented. "Maybe Aidan will change it to a year, sell the farm, show up at Carrie's house in a moving van and surprise her when she sleeps with the new big shot."
Production on AJLT Season 3 has been delayed due to a writers' strike, and the show is currently expected to return sometime in 2025. If there was a two-year gap between the two seasons, maybe the five-year time jump wouldn't be so obvious.
