EGADS!

From EW, a quote from TPTB on Season 6 premiere:

“I wish it was already here. The audience may hate it. The audience may not hate it. But at least they will finally see it, and when they do, it will be a relief.”

Ah, that does not sound too confident.
Some viewers may HATE it? That's really strong, but even though they HATE it, it will be a relief?

Does not put one in a confident frame of mind.
