They could've made the time jump a bit shorter, it would still work I think. What I don't understand though is why they made time for the Strange Dogs story when they knew the series wouldn't continue.... (I want to believe!)

The book also mentions that everyone takes therapies to extend their lifespan, so they don't HAVE to look 30 years older. I'm holding out hope that they wait 5-10 years and adapt the rest of the books, letting the actors look just a bit older, and keeping the full 30 year jump.

Iirc, the creators said they included that specifically because they were optimistic of continuing the series some day down the road.
