However, you might be thinking of the reason why the show was canceled after Season 7. The primary reasons for its cancellation were:
* Declining ratings: While *Highlander* had a dedicated fanbase, its ratings had been steadily declining for several seasons, leading to a drop in viewership and, consequently, advertising revenue.
* Production costs: The show was known for its elaborate action sequences and special effects, which became increasingly expensive to produce.
* Contractual issues: There were disagreements between the production company and the actors over salaries and working conditions, leading to a difficult production environment.
Despite its cancellation, *Highlander* left a lasting impact on popular culture. The series spawned a movie sequel, a spin-off TV series (*Highlander: The Raven*), and a video game franchise. Its popularity helped solidify the idea of immortal beings and the concept of "there can be only one" in pop culture.
