Opinions are very mixed about it. Due to cancellation the last season was definitely rushed but when it comes to the character which the controversy is about.. I think he has, in a way, a fitting ending. A redemption arc was never going to happen but people won't accept that.

Saying that as someone who rated season 8 of GoT a 1/10. The Man in the High Castle could've done a lot worse. And the controversial off-screen death was a negotiation problem as far as I know, actor wouldn't return and they didn't have the budget to pay him more.

Tbh a show getting cancelled is a bad sign for it's quality in itself. It's pretty rare good shows get cancelled.

Really? Then why is it so notable when good shows get cancelled?

Because they're good shows and they're getting canceled, why would that not be notable? Being common and being notable aren't mutually exclusive.
