It will end with around 85 episodes, which is hardly "very few."

Sometimes you can only tell so much story in 85 episodes. British
shows do it in far less, in most cases, too.

Additionally, there's only so much revenue you can make on a cable
series, especially an expensive science fiction series with loads of
special effects. Making 85 can sometimes be seen as quite an
achievement for a cable series.
