Netflix canceled Santa Clarita Diet and i am in mourning 8( also I think this means I'm pretty much done with new Netflix originals -- I'm sick of this dumb three-season cap when the seasons are so short to begin with
๐๐ฅ๐๐๐โ๐๐๐๐ฅโ๐๐ฃ๐
what noooo
neely
Ughhhhh
neely
At least we are getting another season of Glow
Mad Larkin
Netflix does seem to be cancelling everything lately

(Yes I'm still bitter about the Punisher)

I wish they'd at least make the decision BEFORE the final season so we wouldn't have these awful cliffhanger series deaths
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
Glow is 100% getting canceled too after this season :/
ศก๐ฒ๐ดฤ

I read an article where the show runner said he thought this would be good either way things went and I'm just. NO. it is a terrible cliffhanger. How do you think this could be a series finale?
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
yeah that part is fucked up too, like, dude, what
ศก๐ฒ๐ดฤ
๐ด๐ฝั๐ป
And they can't shop it elsewhere because it's 100% a Netflix property.
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
if you knew you were under the axe then whyyyyyyy
TheHourMorgana
Black Mirror however somehow survived
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
I didn't realize it was the Better Off Ted guy but of course it was
ศก๐ฒ๐ดฤ
๐ด๐ฝั๐ป
Anyway I am also upset, it's such a good show.
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
I guess if they start working with showrunners to deliberately craft complete stories in 3 seasons that's one thing
TheHourMorgana
I don't count Kimmy Schimt in the ax festival, think that was a planned ending
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
but I refuse to get invested in anything else that probably won't get a real ending after, what, 10 or 20 episodes? especially if they're comedy-length
ศก๐ฒ๐ดฤ

People on reddit were saying it benefits Netflix more to have a broad catalog than longer series so like. JUST SAY THERE WILL BE A CAP so writers can wrap things.
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
right, I don't have a problem with "such-and-such, the final season"
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
just tell them
ศก๐ฒ๐ดฤ
๐ด๐ฝั๐ป
I'll still watch a limited series.
ศก๐ฒ๐ดฤ
๐ด๐ฝั๐ป
But /shakes fist
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
I read somewhere that SCD was originally planned for five
ศก๐ฒ๐ดฤ
๐ด๐ฝั๐ป
Yeah that was in the article I read too.
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
tbh I'm like, there's no way it costs that much, just give them the fucking five >>
skipthedemon
Yeah, if this is going to be a thing, they should tell writers to plan a three year arc that can be extended. Geez
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
but then there's not even really a guarantee of three because plenty of stuff has been axed after one or two
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
(although tbf Sense8 was hideously expensive)
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
oh also re: Black Mirror, the first two seasons weren't done by Netflix so technically it's already got five built-in
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
plus whatever Bandersnatch was
TheHourMorgana
The mass MCU axe festival is its own problem IMO, especially since the teen shows are the only ones left (TY for the note on Black Mirror)
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
lol I'm also still bitter about Travelers even though that had a good wrap-up
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
but like... there is more story to tell
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
if the story is really over, that's fine, but I hate this stupid arbitrary limit
Mad Larkin
Yeah, I'm not sure why all the Marvel shows got axed at once
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
I think that has something to do with the Disney issue but I know Marvel Studios has said it's not even a little bit on their end
TheHourMorgana
But how does Runaways and Cloak and Dagger survive?? Yes I know its the teen led shows but really...
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
but those are on Freeform? they have nothing to do with Netflix
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
or Runaways is Hulu, isn't it
TheHourMorgana
Hulu and Freeform
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
but yeah neither one has any connection to Netflix
TheHourMorgana
Just annoyed more than anything given the ace spree
TheHourMorgana
axe^
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
I like them both too! Cloak and Dagger started off horribly slow but has been really engaging since like... mid-s1. and I hated the first season of Runaways but the second season really improved.
bees-n-murders
from what I've been hearing about Marvel it's the royalties on Netflix's end that have been making them balk at continuing to host existing shows
Mad Larkin
Well, that sucks
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
that's what it is generally but I heard there might be More To It with the Marvels specifically
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
or, not host, but produce
skipthedemon
I also want MORE TRAVELERS. Grr.
Boo๐ปBerry
what the fuck
๐๐ฅ๐๐๐โ๐๐๐๐ฅโ๐๐ฃ๐
wait travelers is cancelled too
๐๐ฅ๐๐๐โ๐๐๐๐ฅโ๐๐ฃ๐
I'm not terribly surprised (i was a bit shocked we got three) but I hadn't heard yet
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
I think you just forgot because I'm pretty sure we talked about it when it happened?
๐๐ฅ๐๐๐โ๐๐๐๐ฅโ๐๐ฃ๐
possible but not likely? last convo I remember us having was how they were going to come away from that ending and how everyone was falling apart
๐๐ฅ๐๐๐โ๐๐๐๐ฅโ๐๐ฃ๐
and I am still processing mixed feelings of relief that we don't have to deal with a whole new team or my inherent annoyance over those kinds of storylines and thinking it's a neat tie up
๐๐ฅ๐๐๐โ๐๐๐๐ฅโ๐๐ฃ๐
that being said i am pulling a lot of hours right now so my memory losing that convo is not out of the question
TheHourMorgana
Was it even confirmed if Kimmy Schimdt was axed or planned ending wise? I kept hearing planned
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
no, Kimmy Schmidt wrapped
๐น๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐พ๐ฝ'๐
it was confirmed
TheHourMorgana
TY, I had a feeling it was not in the axe festival
