Ooooh I had no idea! Thank you! I listen to a lot of podcasts at work, but only two really and I do a lot of repeats to pass the time. This will be a welcome change. Same name?
I loved the multicultural novelty of it too. So many different languages, some people were multilingual, but a lot of it were people thrown into a room together, working together, but not able to speak each others languages. It very much felt like what it would have been like crossing the ocean on a large liner without translation services and just trying to get by.
Its hard to compare them. 1899s season was good but it barley scratched the surface of whatever story. Dark is a full story. Stick with it. It gets absolutely wild.
I wouldn’t go as far as to say it was great. It had immense potential though, and a really talented cast overall.
Problem is, they were so confident in renewing for a second season that you literally have less knowledge about the lore at the end of the season than in the middle.
Cancellation basically ruined that show as a “post-action”. What was meant to be a great mistery show and a fun “young people must create a civilised society when all of civiliasition disappears - or they do” turned into “unfinished plot points galore”.
Kind of similar to what would have happened to Lost if for some reason they couldn’t beg the studio for additional seasons above the originally agreed 3 (I think?).
I heard that Lost had a godawful ending before I got to watch it, so I never started. So THIS was my Lost, and it got cancelled AFTER season 2 getting renewed and written. I was beyond pissed!
KAOS was such an original take on Greek mythology, and The Residence was a great new series in the Knives Out style. I was so disappointed that they just dumped them both like that
I remember reading it was most likely canceled due to budget. S1 was insanely expensive, and with where they were going with S2, it would've been more expensive with a bigger cast and more VFX and there wasn't enough viewers to justify another expensive season.
While I get it because Sense8 and Altered Carbon went through the same thing years ago, Netflix really needs to reevaluate how shows are renewed/canceled. This is horseshit and such a massive waste of money and resources.
Viewers are less and less inclined to check out streaming shows (especially right away) for this very reason. Why get emotionally invested in a show if Netflix is going to cancel it inside of a month? Which affects the numbers more, which leads to more cancelations. So now Netflix has more duds than wins because this "model" sucks anus.
So they need to stop using the same simple formula that literal every network has used since the inception of tv shows to determine if they should cancel something or not?
For real, I don’t know why Netflix catches shit for this. They’ve cancelled shows I love, but so have a lot of tradition cable networks and for the same reason: the cost wasn’t justified by the viewership. That’s just the nature of the business.
A show cost what a show cost. For example, Mindhunter was cancelled because it cost so much to make and the audience wasn’t there for it. Netflix was willing to continue the show at a reduced budget, but Fincher declined to do so.
Other shows had pretty reasonable budgets, but if they didn’t capture an audience with what they had, they aren’t likely to with a lower budget second or third season. It would be throwing good money after bad.
The Residence SHOCKED me because it was Shonda Rhimes at her tightest. like How to Get Away With Murder meets Scandal, but also very funny! howww did it get cancelled?
Jeff Goldblum as Zeus playing Jeff Goldblum was absolutely perfect. The whole cast top to bottom played their parts so well with few weak links in the gods and underworld quest. The whole Spartans and Minos storyline could have done some things better, but it didn't hold the show back.
This was one of the most interesting takes on the underworld that I've ever seen as well. I was bummed when I saw they weren't making season 2.
Oh watch it, it is still amazing television. It's funny and sharp and witty. The visuals are great, the actors as well and oh my god, the soundtrack is so good. I still listen to it on a regular basis, here's the Spotify link if anyone is interested
One of my favourite gags in The Residence was how they cast Julian McMahon to play the Australian Prime Minister - Julian McMahon's father (William McMahon) actually served as the real-life Prime Minister of Australia back in the 1970s.
While I agree, that show was never going to get a second season. The mere fact that it got released at all is a miracle.
It started as a back door pilot in the middle of Season 3 of Doom Patrol. A series in itself which had gotten shuffled around from DC Universe to HBO/Max, and was never a ratings hit. DBD lambasted in pre-production for YEARS, HBO passed on it, literally all 3 leads were recast, and Netflix miraculously picked it up after it was fully complete for eventual release to the public.
Totally understand why, of course. Still damn such a cool tone to the show the colors and costumes and storyline. That stupid berk had to be a horrible excuse for a human.
Daybreak was such an insanely fun show and I was so insanely bummed out when it got cancelled immediately. Same for I Am Not Okay With This and Everything Sucks too. I like quirky shows a lot, and Netflix has proven that they will greenlight them and then kill em immediately after their season one cliffhangers, so I’ve stopped watching a lot of Netflix’s original content unless it’s a standalone project or it’s one of their massive shows like Squid Game and Stranger Things. I don’t want to invest in shows that have a bunch of heart when Netflix only cares about how many people have binged them within after release. Can you imagine if a show like The Office or Parks & Rec had’ve premiered on Netflix? They would’ve been cancelled so fuckin fast even though it took them a couple of seasons to blow up with massive, passionate fan bases. Netflix runs their content curation by algorithm alone, and that’s fine, but I also think it has started to show. We’re gonna get the American Squid Game a year from now, and Stranger Things is finished in a week and you know they’re gonna push for spinoffs that’ll probably fizzle out. They’re lucky they have Love is Blind, even though that seems like it’s running out of steam too. Netflix is investing in live content, which is smart even though it doesn’t work half of the time. I’m probably going to switch to just subscribing a month or two sporadically each year instead of having it all year long. Their library is like the island of misfit toys for the most part ever since they stopped having an expansive library of non-Netflix stuff to watch.
Yup this is the one I was looking for. It was a fun show, didn’t take itself too serious. It was one of the last Netflix shows I watched because I didn’t want to deal with another show I liked being cancelled.
I was so excited to watch Kadeem Hardison in something again. I loved A Different World. This and 1899 are why I don’t watch Netflix shows much anymore. They cancel more shows than they give a chance.
Altered Carbon. I know the 2nd season was not as well recirved as the first and Anthony Mackie wasn't great for the role, but I still enjoyed it and was entertained. It had a great concept and they could've have replaced the lead with literally any actor, but alas...
The books kinda fell of the rails. The second one is actually kinda cool in a vacuum, its a race against a dangerous replicating robot to get into a crashed alien ship on a planet in the middle of a war. Then the third one is where they took the 2nd show season from with his search for Falconer. I agree though they should have stuck with the combo of Will Yun Lee and Joel Kinnaman
I don't think it was suppose to be more than a single season... it was based off a book, and they pretty much wrapped up the entire book in the series we got.
Archive 81 and 1899 made me really distrust Netflix. 1899 especially, which was by the series creator of Dark, one of my favorite shows of all time. Now I won't watch anything on Netflix until it gets a second season made, because first season cliffhangers for shows that get the Netflix axe are miserable.
It’s so funny, when it got cancelled I wondered if the Gaiman connection was a factor, and got thoroughly shouted down on here. I’m glad more people seem to be wondering the same thing.
Kaos and I’m not okay with this were great and deserves to go on longer.
I just hate how series are not allowed to have time to develop and find themselves anymore. And the worst part is that it’s teaching audiences to not care about series unless they are mini-series
I’m still bitter about Marco Polo being canceled. I know it was two seasons, but I was excited to see how they were going to handle Prestor John in season 3.
Inside Job leaving off on a cliffhanger will never not irk me, and Altered Carbon felt like it had a lot of meat left on the bone.
But the one that pisses me off the absolute most is Kaos. And it's not close. I love Greek mythology, but so many adaptations and tellings either refuse to deviate from the Ancient Greece setting, or wind up feeling like Percy Jackson ripoffs. Kaos is hands down the best modern adaptation of Greek mythology, if for no other reason than it understood what so many others missed: a lot of it is so fucked up and messy and the product of narcissism. I mean, hell, Greek mythology is LITERALLY where the concept of narcissism comes from. It just makes me so damn sad that they shitcanned an actually creative and original idea with that much promise and potential because it didn't min-max the Corporate Profit Game.
Inside Job leaving on a cliff hanger, only getting half of season one of Captain Fall, only getting one season of Chicago Party Aunt ..... There were some really interesting concepts put out in their animation during COVID and they just got rid of them for no reason. Inside Job is truly so funny that I cannot believe it got canceled
Just so everyone here is aware, I’m reading this list and all these shows are the ones Netflix is recommending to me. If it wasn’t for the movies they’d be a dead company. I’ve started so many of these to find out there isn’t another season that I just stopped watching.
Fuck you Netflix. Get your shit together. Also I’m not paying premium because of shit like this.
I was an AV Club nerd in high school in the Pacific Northwest mid 90’s so Everything Sucks felt made specifically for me. Not the greatest show but was enjoyable and the first season ended on a huge cliffhanger that will never be resolved
As the father of a new baby 2 years ago, my tv watching is much more limited than it used to be. I have to choose carefully which shows get my time. Its surprising how many shows in this list i picked to watch. Its like i have a knack for picking shows that will be canceled.
I liked the residence, but I honestly think it was good as a miniseries versus an ongoing series.
I kind of wish Netflix, and writers/show runners, would have more focus on making mini-series and anthologies. If I gets renewed for a second one then great, but they should all be self-contained seasons.
The Midnight Gospel my beloved. The problem with trying to compete with Adult Swim when you're algorithmically driven and comparing everything to a few megahits is you are not going to have an instant Rick and Morty type success because they don't have the breathing room. Adult animation is a niche cult audience that rewatches frequently and Netflix dont have the patience for that.
I’m so tired of these articles that don’t work well on my phone. I try to zoom in to a pic and everything messes up and it goes back to the top. It’s 2025, why can’t these websites figure it out??
Anyways, so much wasted potential by Netflix. Some of them I had never heard of or heard they weren’t great, but some were really good like Boots of The Midnight club or Kaos, and some were just a lot of fun like The Society
There’s an Archive 81 shaped hole in my heart that will never be filled
It is based off a podcast that finishes the entire story. It might not fill the void the show left, but there at least will be a conclusion.
Ooooh I had no idea! Thank you! I listen to a lot of podcasts at work, but only two really and I do a lot of repeats to pass the time. This will be a welcome change. Same name?
Same name, heres a link to it.
Bless you Erik Drake! Sam/Nate Lehnsherr? Either way, sic(k) name
The podcast is VASTLY superior, Left of the Dial is one of my favorite audio dramas
Yes and 1899
Still so annoyed about that! It was SO good!!!
I loved the multicultural novelty of it too. So many different languages, some people were multilingual, but a lot of it were people thrown into a room together, working together, but not able to speak each others languages. It very much felt like what it would have been like crossing the ocean on a large liner without translation services and just trying to get by.
I’m trying to get into Dark, but 1899 is much better. Also i love ships so I’m biased
Its hard to compare them. 1899s season was good but it barley scratched the surface of whatever story. Dark is a full story. Stick with it. It gets absolutely wild.
Totally!
For real it was so fucking good
OMG i’ve found my people 😭😭 I will forever be so mad at the cliffhanger we were left with
I agree!
That one still stings
Really pissed about I'm Not Okay With This
I love Sophia lillis
Came her to say this. I was so hyped for her to basically join the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants
So you're.....not okay with this?
Kinda ironic lol
It was a victim of the pandemic break. We wanted it to continue too, my daughter got to be an extra in it.
Still mad about The Society. It wasn't the best show in the world but still it was interesting enough to want another season.
The first few episodes were clunky as fuck but it definitely started hooking me in. I’m mad about it too.
Now I’m back to writing fanfiction to finish out the series like some kind of JERK!
Where can I read it ?
Yo, if you write Harry/Allie fanfics I’m in.
It really hit its stride with that death a few episodes in, felt like the writers were not afraid to have stakes and consequences
Ughhh the Society was great
I wouldn’t go as far as to say it was great. It had immense potential though, and a really talented cast overall.
Problem is, they were so confident in renewing for a second season that you literally have less knowledge about the lore at the end of the season than in the middle.
Cancellation basically ruined that show as a “post-action”. What was meant to be a great mistery show and a fun “young people must create a civilised society when all of civiliasition disappears - or they do” turned into “unfinished plot points galore”.
Kind of similar to what would have happened to Lost if for some reason they couldn’t beg the studio for additional seasons above the originally agreed 3 (I think?).
One of the worst cliffhangers too. I liked it but I tell people not to watch it because they’ll be mad at the (lack of) ending!
it only lacked an ending because they didn’t renew it… it’s still a gd show
The worst is that they DID renew it, but Covid happened so they canned it because they couldn’t film. Same thing with Glow.
Same here
I heard that Lost had a godawful ending before I got to watch it, so I never started. So THIS was my Lost, and it got cancelled AFTER season 2 getting renewed and written. I was beyond pissed!
KAOS was such an original take on Greek mythology, and The Residence was a great new series in the Knives Out style. I was so disappointed that they just dumped them both like that
kaos still hurts, was fantastic
I remember reading it was most likely canceled due to budget. S1 was insanely expensive, and with where they were going with S2, it would've been more expensive with a bigger cast and more VFX and there wasn't enough viewers to justify another expensive season.

For real, I don’t know why Netflix catches shit for this. They’ve cancelled shows I love, but so have a lot of tradition cable networks and for the same reason: the cost wasn’t justified by the viewership. That’s just the nature of the business.
Maybe better budgeting upfront?
I’m saying this out of ignorance
A show cost what a show cost. For example, Mindhunter was cancelled because it cost so much to make and the audience wasn’t there for it. Netflix was willing to continue the show at a reduced budget, but Fincher declined to do so.
Other shows had pretty reasonable budgets, but if they didn’t capture an audience with what they had, they aren’t likely to with a lower budget second or third season. It would be throwing good money after bad.
It was the first time I realized Jeffrey Goldblum can actually act. Devastated they took that from me.
Well now there’s a whole world of great performances to enjoy open to you.
You must've never seen The Fly
The Residence SHOCKED me because it was Shonda Rhimes at her tightest. like How to Get Away With Murder meets Scandal, but also very funny! howww did it get cancelled?
Pure speculation on my part, but I would imagine that was a really hard production to be a part of with the death of Andre Braugher.
It’s also tough to continue because, similar to Knives Out, you may only bring back 1-2 characters.
I did enjoy it, though.
Someone should be prosecuted for Kaos.
Woah woah they’re not gonna make another season? Why not it was cool!
I haven’t personally heard any reasons why either show wasn’t renewed - though someone above said KAOS might’ve been about budget
Kaos was super interesting. Great cast as well. Was disappointed in this one
Jeff Goldblum as Zeus playing Jeff Goldblum was absolutely perfect. The whole cast top to bottom played their parts so well with few weak links in the gods and underworld quest. The whole Spartans and Minos storyline could have done some things better, but it didn't hold the show back.
This was one of the most interesting takes on the underworld that I've ever seen as well. I was bummed when I saw they weren't making season 2.
Kaos cancellation really upset me,Goldblume as Zeus was brilliant.
I was gonna watch kaos before it was cancelled. Now I’ll never watch it.
Oh watch it, it is still amazing television. It's funny and sharp and witty. The visuals are great, the actors as well and oh my god, the soundtrack is so good. I still listen to it on a regular basis, here's the Spotify link if anyone is interested
They didn’t even give it a shot, such a bummer. Ironically my wife and I were in Greece for our honeymoon when we discovered it.
One of my favourite gags in The Residence was how they cast Julian McMahon to play the Australian Prime Minister - Julian McMahon's father (William McMahon) actually served as the real-life Prime Minister of Australia back in the 1970s.
If they didn’t cancel the good shows how else will Big Mouth get another season?!?!?
Dead Boy Detectives was so good
Came here to say this. I get the whole Neil Gaiman thing, but losing that show hurt bad
Loved that one
While I agree, that show was never going to get a second season. The mere fact that it got released at all is a miracle.
It started as a back door pilot in the middle of Season 3 of Doom Patrol. A series in itself which had gotten shuffled around from DC Universe to HBO/Max, and was never a ratings hit. DBD lambasted in pre-production for YEARS, HBO passed on it, literally all 3 leads were recast, and Netflix miraculously picked it up after it was fully complete for eventual release to the public.
That one was cancelled because Neil Gaiman is a sex pest.
Totally understand why, of course. Still damn such a cool tone to the show the colors and costumes and storyline. That stupid berk had to be a horrible excuse for a human.
I'm still bitter about 1899.
Especially how dark season 1 was similar in so much stuff didn’t make sense. I’m sure if they finished it would have received better praise.
Same, bro, same
Yeah that was a good one.
What I came here to lament on; deserved so much more
Daybreak was such an insanely fun show and I was so insanely bummed out when it got cancelled immediately. Same for I Am Not Okay With This and Everything Sucks too. I like quirky shows a lot, and Netflix has proven that they will greenlight them and then kill em immediately after their season one cliffhangers, so I’ve stopped watching a lot of Netflix’s original content unless it’s a standalone project or it’s one of their massive shows like Squid Game and Stranger Things.

Their library is like the island of misfit toys for the most part ever since they stopped having an expansive library of non-Netflix stuff to watch.
Wasn’t daybreak cancelled literally a week after it came out?
It was pretty damn fast. Felt like it was within a week of me finishing it. Shockingly fast, literally haha.
I don’t get it. I binged that show inside of 48 hours. It was amazing. Cancelled before they even saw weather it would work.
Lockwood and Co. / Soundtrack you will never be forgotten
They could’ve wrapped the rest of the books in one season!
Dark Crystal Age of Resistance 😢
This one legitimately broke my heart. I’m excited for the Grendel movie they’re making though, I have very high hopes
ooo where can i get info on that?
https://bloody-disgusting.com/movie/3838653/grendel-preview-the-live-action-movies-monster-design-from-the-jim-henson-company/
It would have been so easy to just make one more season. They had all the damn puppets already!
Yeah this one really hurt, its one of the best shows I’ve ever seen and I really wish they had the chance to continue.
Don't remind me
I’ve been meaning to watch this. I didn’t realize it was cancelled. So did they not finish the story arc?
Left on a major cliffhanger
The Brothers Sun was pretty solid, I quite enjoyed it. Sad it only lasted the one season.
Loved The Brothers Sun, and Beef before that
Yup this is the one I was looking for. It was a fun show, didn’t take itself too serious. It was one of the last Netflix shows I watched because I didn’t want to deal with another show I liked being cancelled.
Teenage Bounty Hunters was fantastic imo
Agreed
I was so excited to watch Kadeem Hardison in something again. I loved A Different World. This and 1899 are why I don’t watch Netflix shows much anymore. They cancel more shows than they give a chance.
100% agree
I didn’t want to watch it at first because of the dumb name. But it was a fantastic show and I really wanted another season.
Thinking about Kaos (and how that kitten will never be avenged) makes me unreasonably upset.
I liked Teenage Bounty Hunters
I think it found it's foot and ended strongly and I was waiting for the next season
KAOS was amazing and I’m still pissed it only got one season
I swear The Society got renewed for a season 2… what happened to that?
I think COVID had a lot to do with it but Netflix will axe shows for whatever reason
yh they stopped it cus of covid
I enjoyed Kaos
That could easily have carried on
They didn’t even give it a chance. Before my partner and I got to it they already had announced it was cancelled
KAOS, anyone? Yeah they cancelled it weeks after release with very little effort to advertise it
I wish they made more Murderville episodes. I laughed a lot.
So good!
Altered Carbon. I know the 2nd season was not as well recirved as the first and Anthony Mackie wasn't great for the role, but I still enjoyed it and was entertained. It had a great concept and they could've have replaced the lead with literally any actor, but alas...
The books kinda fell of the rails. The second one is actually kinda cool in a vacuum, its a race against a dangerous replicating robot to get into a crashed alien ship on a planet in the middle of a war. Then the third one is where they took the 2nd show season from with his search for Falconer. I agree though they should have stuck with the combo of Will Yun Lee and Joel Kinnaman
There is a lot wrong with season 2, but it begins and ends with Mackie.
With the exception of perhaps twisted metal, he’s just not going to carry a series.
Twisted Metal has no reason being as enjoyable as it is. Sweet tooth is the fucking man
Altered Carbon S1 is in my top five cyberpunk media, just in general.
I couldn't vibe with S2 whatsoever, but I feel like if they'd learned what did and didn't work from both seasons, S3 would've been a banger.
But no. Fucking Netflix.
I just couldn’t get over Mackey in the role. Guy is pretty decent human being but as an actor I’m just not impressed.
14 year old me is still not over I Am Not Okay With This
Shit, 40-something me is still not over I Am Not Okay with This.
Th Society should have never been cancelled such a great show with a promising future regarding the plot and the cast was amazing
Boots was pretty good
But it worked as a single season. I’d certainly watch a second season, but at least we got a complete story without a cliffhanger.
I don't think it was suppose to be more than a single season... it was based off a book, and they pretty much wrapped up the entire book in the series we got.
not sure what a second season would even be.
For real. They should have just called it a mini-series.
Or like they do with UK programming: “Limited Series”
It was 2 seasons but I LOVED the OA, and I am so sad that it was cancelled
I will never recover from this
shocked not to see this higher. still in mourning over the OA
Archive 81 and 1899 made me really distrust Netflix. 1899 especially, which was by the series creator of Dark, one of my favorite shows of all time. Now I won't watch anything on Netflix until it gets a second season made, because first season cliffhangers for shows that get the Netflix axe are miserable.
Some of the worst offences Netflix does is the 3 season and drop routine. I’m still salty about The Santa Clarita Diet.
The society and grand army deserved more than 1 season
I just rewatched the Society. Stacked cast and really fun take on the concept.
Dead Boy Detectives — I don’t think Netflix even gave it a real chance
They were cleaning their hands of Neil Gaiman dirt but I get it, very fun show
It’s so funny, when it got cancelled I wondered if the Gaiman connection was a factor, and got thoroughly shouted down on here. I’m glad more people seem to be wondering the same thing.
Brand New Cherry Flavor was one of the most ambitious what the hell shows Netflix has ever graced the world with and the world said no.
Thank you!! That was amazing! Even my friends who can guess the plot of most shows was stumped!
Society made me never want to watch another Netflix show again because it’s so dumb that they can just do that with any show.
The Midnight Gospel, Archive 81 and Inside Job all need more seasons
Pretty much all their shows. Netflix is where shows die after a season.
rip Inside Job
Kaos and I’m not okay with this were great and deserves to go on longer.
I just hate how series are not allowed to have time to develop and find themselves anymore. And the worst part is that it’s teaching audiences to not care about series unless they are mini-series
I’m still bitter about Marco Polo being canceled. I know it was two seasons, but I was excited to see how they were going to handle Prestor John in season 3.
For me it was the Messiah, show got me hooked but got cancelled after the first season.
Yeah that one was pretty good. Loved the Mystery of it!
I scrolled a long time before someone mentioned Messiah. I agree. I think about it all the time.
I only watch finished shows now. I’m just over starting a show for it not to get an ending
Inside Job leaving off on a cliffhanger will never not irk me, and Altered Carbon felt like it had a lot of meat left on the bone.
But the one that pisses me off the absolute most is Kaos. And it's not close. I love Greek mythology, but so many adaptations and tellings either refuse to deviate from the Ancient Greece setting, or wind up feeling like Percy Jackson ripoffs. Kaos is hands down the best modern adaptation of Greek mythology, if for no other reason than it understood what so many others missed: a lot of it is so fucked up and messy and the product of narcissism. I mean, hell, Greek mythology is LITERALLY where the concept of narcissism comes from. It just makes me so damn sad that they shitcanned an actually creative and original idea with that much promise and potential because it didn't min-max the Corporate Profit Game.
Bring back Kaos, you milquetoast cowards.
Inside Job leaving on a cliff hanger, only getting half of season one of Captain Fall, only getting one season of Chicago Party Aunt ..... There were some really interesting concepts put out in their animation during COVID and they just got rid of them for no reason. Inside Job is truly so funny that I cannot believe it got canceled
Teenage Bounty Hunters fly high
Just so everyone here is aware, I’m reading this list and all these shows are the ones Netflix is recommending to me. If it wasn’t for the movies they’d be a dead company. I’ve started so many of these to find out there isn’t another season that I just stopped watching.
Fuck you Netflix. Get your shit together. Also I’m not paying premium because of shit like this.
Messiah was gonna be dope
I’m still sad about The Society. I know COVID and then other engagements tanked the second season but like. Make it anyways.
Giri/haji so much potential, felt like we just started to know the characters fully and the team dynamics.
I forgot I watched that! Yeah it was cool
Kaos and The Residence breaks my heart.
a damn shame about the residence
The most egregious for me is Living With Yourself.
Boots was a good show
I was an AV Club nerd in high school in the Pacific Northwest mid 90’s so Everything Sucks felt made specifically for me. Not the greatest show but was enjoyable and the first season ended on a huge cliffhanger that will never be resolved
As the father of a new baby 2 years ago, my tv watching is much more limited than it used to be. I have to choose carefully which shows get my time. Its surprising how many shows in this list i picked to watch. Its like i have a knack for picking shows that will be canceled.
It is a shame that the witty mystery "The Residence" only got one season.
Boots is too good.
It's only canceled for political reasons
They should just use the Korean model. End the show after 16 episodes.
Exactly.
I will never forgive them for what they did to inside job.
We dropped off the boots?
Man I really wanted more Archive 81, the show was so good and was left on a giant cliffhanger.
But I don't sub to netflix anymore anyway, so 🤷♂️.
My husband & I got super invested in The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself. It was cancelled not long after release 😔
Archive 81 and 1899.
Both had amazing concepts meant to explore in 2-3 seasons total. Both kinda jumped the shark in season 1 with budget/cgi and Netflix got scared
+1 for KAOS.
Bring that back, Jack!
Justice for Julie and the Phantoms!
Daybreak - terrible protagonist but really interesting premise. I think it could have benefited from a second season
I liked the residence, but I honestly think it was good as a miniseries versus an ongoing series.
I kind of wish Netflix, and writers/show runners, would have more focus on making mini-series and anthologies. If I gets renewed for a second one then great, but they should all be self-contained seasons.
All these cancelled shows, then you got Jason Mamoas show going strong lol
Boots was great
I enjoyed this too.
Boots was amazing, but I think that it was only meant to be a season? It started and ended in boot camp. That was the point.
Still annoyed about The Society
I wanted to see more Jupiter's Legacy
Altered Carbon. Idc what you say
Netflix should license these shows with profit sharing agreements or something.
Daybreak for sure
Between Randall Park and Melissa Fumero, Blockbuster looked like it had a chance to be decent. And then it wasn’t…
The Witcher
It wasn't great, but still Henry put is heart in that role.
Inside Job was fantastic, loved it
Agent Elvis was fun. Stupid fun. But fun.
There was a show called damnation i thought was quite good but only got 1 season
My bad guys, totally my fault. I didn’t see a single one of these shows except the first 5 minutes of resident evil.
I think it was planned as one season but I wish we had gotten more Samurai Gourmet. Such a fun series.
I will always be salty about Dark Crystal. That was officially the last straw for me.
Kaos. It was so good 😥
Will abandons being in the club?
The Midnight Gospel my beloved. The problem with trying to compete with Adult Swim when you're algorithmically driven and comparing everything to a few megahits is you are not going to have an instant Rick and Morty type success because they don't have the breathing room. Adult animation is a niche cult audience that rewatches frequently and Netflix dont have the patience for that.
I am not OK with this, The Brothers Sun, and 1899 were all too good to be cancelled
We went straight from the golden age to the dark age of television.
I know it was more than one season but I’m still pissed about how they quickly wrapped up Sense8.
I need more Inside Job :(
Netflix Nixes Best Shows.
I’m so tired of these articles that don’t work well on my phone. I try to zoom in to a pic and everything messes up and it goes back to the top. It’s 2025, why can’t these websites figure it out??
Anyways, so much wasted potential by Netflix. Some of them I had never heard of or heard they weren’t great, but some were really good like Boots of The Midnight club or Kaos, and some were just a lot of fun like The Society
I am maybe the only fan of Neo Yokio who vibes with what they were going for. Animation was awful but it was a fun little hyper capitalism critique
Jupiter’s Legacy was so cool.
