Did it get an ending or was it cancelled abruptly?

Literally can’t be bothered to start a show that doesn’t have an ending already. Why invest any time with a show that doesn’t give a shit about the story and just wants to make money and cancels the moment profitability is gone.

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 10 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yeah studios hate this because they want to know how invested people are to know if they should continue. However they made the problem themselves by cancelling so many good shows.

Netflix leaked that if something isn't crazy popular after season 1 it won't get picked up again, which is asinine because we all know so many shows don't get their legs until season 2 or 3

[–] sheogorath@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

But to be honest if the story gets good after 2 or 3 seasons the amount of people watching will still be smaller than the first season. I've been so turned off by the WoT series on Amazon, when people said the season 2 is better than season 1 I still didn't have the energy to watch it.

[–] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It's by far better than S1. Watch it so we can get more seasons.

If one thing hasn't been abundantly clear by now is that the people who are currently calling the shots need to have that power revoked.

That's why I choose carefully

RIP The Expanse. Relatable meme.

[–] 01189998819991197253 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The exact show that came to mind when I saw this meme. I WANT MORE!

[–] TheControlled@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There's hope. Just rumors, but hope.

[–] sheogorath@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

IIRC the current plan is to secure a new source of funding. It might take years, but I think it'll work out because the next novel is basically a time skip to a new arc with a new set of main characters.

Mr. Robot 🫗

I rewatch that one every year or so now. So good.

Sam being the one to kill him, and the whole "Goodbye friend" bit, about destroyed me. Last season had some amazing bits.

It's only a little death... Nothing permanent at that point. Then it's gets really good.

[–] ryry1985@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Same. I wish I could watch it for the first time again.

[–] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Then I'd have to sit through the second season again. I almost stopped watching the show after that season. It got much better again after and saved itself.

[–] HowMany@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

When Firefly abruptly stops towards the end of season 1.

[–] 01189998819991197253 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

At least we got a movie. It wasn't enough, but it was better than nothing.

[–] HowMany@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

A hasty finish up but done in good faith. Yep.

There will never be another Bojack horseman T_T

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Watch One Piece.

[–] sexy_peach@feddit.de 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Start watching It's always sunny in philadelphia, but skip season 1.

[–] RQG@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Why skip the fist? I haven't watched it but people keep recommending it.

[–] RadButNotAChad@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

First season isn't bad, it's a little more grounded in reality. As a person who watched it when it premiered, it was something new and wild, but it's definitely tamer, and also as someone mentioned, does not have the craziness of Danny Devito.

[–] RQG@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Doesn't seem like an instant skip to me. But good to know that if I find it a bit tame then I can keep watching or skip to the next season.

[–] sexy_peach@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago

Danny devito is missing which leaves the season with less of their crazy energy. Also they started as a very small production with little money and I think that shows more in the first season.

Anyways, you can start with the first but just know that the show changes somewhat afterwards, it get's better.

[–] nooneescapesthelaw@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

First season doesn't have frank reynolds/danny devito so maybe that's why

[–] BolexForSoup@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

S1 is like 6 or 7 episodes and the show is pretty much all bottle episodes (with callbacks) so it’s pretty skippable as a result.

Me for years after Breaking Bad, then again after Better Call Saul

[–] Pothetato@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Now you watch YouTube videos and read discussions about the show.

[–] SebSnares@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago

Six seasons and a movie 🥲

[–] lunarul@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Try binging an entire show for several nights in a row just to find out the last episode hasn't aired yet...

[–] pythonoob@programming.dev 3 points 2 years ago

The Expanse :/

[–] BigDaddySlim@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I binge watched Bill Hader's "Barry" when the last season came out and didn't know what to do afterwards.

Also had the same feeling when Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad both ended. Such good shows.

[–] lichtmetzger@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Shitt's Creek could've gone on forever, change my mind.

[–] 01189998819991197253 2 points 2 years ago

I will not change your mind. I agree completely.

[–] TheYear2525@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

At least we still had some Angel left.

[–] 01189998819991197253 1 points 2 years ago

The vampire show? I never could get into it, even after watching several seasons, and thoroughly enjoying the actors' skill levels. But that theme song... I have it on my music player. It's so good!

[–] kamehameherp@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I honestly don't know what I'll do when One Piece ends, I've been watching it for the majority of my life.

[–] kratoz29@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Rewatch?

Wait for Netflix to finish the adaptation? /s

[–] LongbottomLeaf@lemmy.nz 2 points 2 years ago

Narcos? Now begins the rewatch with subtitles set to Español.

[–] EnderMB@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

That's me waiting for more episodes of Hajime No Ippo.

[–] FunkyMonk@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

There is always anime.

[–] kratoz29@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

That will be me when Attack on Titan ends this Nov 4.

[–] RickyRigatoni@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

WATCH IT AGAIN :D

[–] sweafa@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 years ago
