Yeah, that’s what I mean, the ratings Netflix is aiming for are very high and this shows didn’t reach those ratings lol. The ratings this shows like 1899 have are just not enough for them. Why would they renew all this other shows if they have Stranger Things, Wednesdays, etc that will make them money? And when they can get about the same ratings with way cheaper shows like Emily in Paris? I knew 1899, warrior nun and plenty other shows are gonna get cancelled just by looking at their ratings, it was just obvious. At the same time I knew the last of us will 100% get more seasons, despite some critic on social media because the ratings were so good. Based on ratings, you can guess.Guest wrote: ↑01 Jun 2023, 16:16No, things get cancelled after the first or second season because otherwise the executives have to start paying the people who actually make the shows. Ratings don't mean shit unless you are literally Stranger Things or Succession. Roll with it and hope for the best.Guest wrote: ↑01 Jun 2023, 16:06Da. Of course, there can be other reasons for cancellation of a show. But ratings do matter! Ratings are an indication that people are actually watching the show and the streaming platform makes money. If the show has bad ratings, it most likely will get cancelled because the production of it doesn’t pay off. Many of those cancelled "popular" shows, were popular mostly on social media, but didn’t have the ratings the streaming platforms were aiming.The shows that actually had very good ratings got renewed. Showtime isn’t a streaming platform btw.Guest wrote: ↑01 Jun 2023, 14:50I don't even see why the ratings matter. Streaming services cancel shows for a variety of reasons. Popular shows get cancelled too. I don't think YJ is in danger either.Guest wrote: ↑01 Jun 2023, 10:36The show is doing just fine. There’s even talk about spin-offs. I swear there’s been some anon on here all season trying to convince us ratings are bad and the show is getting cancelled lol It’s the buzziest (pun intended) show on Showtime in a while outside of Dexter. It’s more likely than not to play out the entire arc the creators have planned.
The other thing about Netflix they generally produce more shows than other platforms, hence at the end they cancel more shows than anyone else, not really comparable to Showtime that’s a tv network
