In addition, the show is still a job and he has a family, for whom he needs to provid money. Exactly.... if anything, Colin's contract might extend through Season 7. His wife, Helen, was a teacher back in Ireland, and quit her job when he got the contract. He mentioned in an interview, when he first started on OUaT, that his wife was the main breadwinner in the household.
