Well between waiting 2-3 years in between seasons of anything other than Love Is Blind, and Netflix cancelling tons of shows without conclusions this is exactly what they could expect.

I don’t even start shows with one season anymore.

When you give everyone a platform for a show doesn’t mean they make a good show runner.

Wait, they aren’t all limited series or…? Who knew?

1899. Never forget.
Edit: Yes, it does not relate to the article saying viewers are abandoning shows that *do* get renewed. All I am trying to convey is the saltiness that Netflix forever deserves for burying this show and giving nonsense second and third seasons (that no one apparently watches).

I’ve been abandoning more of their shows after zero seasons.

After the lastest price increase I just dropped it after 10+ years. $20 for no ads and no real new content isn’t worth it

This is a joke right? Netflix frequently cancels shows partway through. There’s no point watching a Netflix series that doesn’t have a conclusion

Then renew them

Maybe if it didn’t take them 4 years to release the next season, they’d retain more of the hype.

I dont even pick up netflix shows anymore, theres no point getting attached if they plan to cancel it anyway

Apple TV+ does not have that issue. It’s an issue with Netflix having poor quality standards. Some shows are a hit, but it’s a small %.
thendisnigh111349 on
Well, 2-3 years between seasons becoming the norm certainly doesn’t help. New shows lose all the momentum they got from their first season by the time the next one comes out.
RaymondBeaumont on
not me. i’m just not going to start a show where it’s either cancelled after one season or there are years until the next season drops which means i’ll never watch it.
only watch shows that are already over now.
history_is_my_crack on
I dont start shows anymore until the entire series is over with. I’ve been burned too many times watching by season only for the show I’ve invested time into to be cancelled.

That’s how they trained their audience after canceling shows after 1 season for the past 7 years straight

Netflix canceled *Glow* just to be bastards, so they shouldn’t be surprised people assume they cancel shows.

Anybody who tried to watch season 2 of Altered Carbon understands that Netflix quits way faster than their users do.

Cable TV we used to get like 24-26 episodes seasons every single year. Now with streaming its like, here’s 8 episodes, tune in 3-5 years from now. By the time the next season comes around ive forgotten I even watched the first season.

I often find out a new season of a show is out when I see a post about it on Reddit or see it listed in the new section of a pirate site and have to search it on Netflix. Yet they still push old canceled shows I watched like Santa Clarita Diet into my recommends every time I open Netflix. So for me it’s not that I’m abandoning shows I like it’s that they seem to be hiding them. Their algorithm makes zero sense to me especially since it used to be great.
Also they’re pushing podcasts and games to me heavily which I’ll never use Netflix to listen to podcasts or play their junk tv games. What are they even doing these days?

“Abandoning” is so dramatic lol no one remembers wtf happened in a season 1 they watched 2-5 years ago.

OPINION: Gorging on reality/crime dramas can be done with network t.v. Innovative shows that end on cliffhangers and are cancelled with great frequency while engaging in a mass inflation in subscription price? Who was thinking that this might be their road to success? Netflix drew you in at a low subscription price and original shows. What would it look like outside of Netflix corporate? Like executives and share holders are being well compensated with a great loss of value. Improve performance to improve standings.

They cancelled sense 8, warrior nun, dark crystal, and generally anything that appeals to young adults or is fantasy. I don’t trust them enough to watch a series till they finish it completely anymore.
3ampeaceandtacos on
Seasons are too short and too far in between. Shows used to get somewhere in the 12-22 ish episodes depending on run time. Everything is dark and quiet. Or they are good but get cancelled for not being an immediate smash hit. Let people fall in love with a story and characters before you pull the plug. Make your content watchable.
This not just a Netflix issue, this is a modern media issue. The kicker is these things are fixable.

multi year breaks between seasons… are they surprised?

Well I dont even wanna invest myself into a show only to have it cancelled after s fff cliffhanger.
Also, ton of shows are straight up boring

I don’t have the time or patience to wait 1-2 years to maaaybe get a second season.
FangornLeghorn on
I’m not even starting new shows anymore. I’m sick of getting six to eight episodes and then waiting 37 years for the next season. Start making enjoyable, well written shows produced with full seasons on a real schedule again and I’ll come back.
mammalmaker on
Maybe don’t wait an eternity to produce the next season.
illucio on
Well the shows I want to watch more then one season of were canceled. Now it’s like 99% crap coming out, all with the same camera, same stiff acting, same bad looking CGI and… I’m not excited hearing about any live action show Netflix announces.
Whether it’s a new IP or a remake they all look the same, feel the same, have a subpar quality to them and whatever they had going for them 12 years ago is gone.
Then their amazing animated shows? Canceled. The cheap, badly written, poorly animated slop? Somehow keeps being made and floods it. (I swear half of it is from the same guy).
I can’t feel invested in anything Netflix releases because I know it will be 2-3 years until I see a new season, that it will most likely be canceled and the „content“ will win.
Netflix doesn’t make shows or movies. They make content.

Netflix basically cancels everything after one season, so is this a cart before the horse issue?
regulus00 on
Canceled great shows like Inside Job, makes terrible season 2s like for altered carbon, and writes a ton of shows now for people who aren’t even watching the shows
What did they think would happen?

Just trying to stay one step ahead of Netflix.
I learned it from watching you, Netflix!
Let me guess…the shows suck?
