    On some level… how does anyone get a Netflix show and pretend they’re getting four or five seasons? First season is a freebie, second season is a victory lap, and then you’re removeding doomed. Yet serious industry professionals keep acting like it’s network TV, and if the ratings keep up with their time-slot, they’ll definitely get renewed. Cliffhangers for everyone!

    Even fans act like it’s a surprise. “I can’t believe Netflix cancelled this after two seasons!” Really? Why can’t you believe that? It’s what they always do. It’s what they keep doing, to any show smaller than Stranger Things.
