As Paul said - successful TV shows get recommissioned. Successful creative partnerships get extended. They had near-worldwide distribution rights and (subtle) creative influence over the longest running, and one of the most recognisable, sci-fi franchises in the world. Be in no doubt, they haven’t walked away simply because an initial agreement expired. They dumped it, hard.
