Best Netflix TV shows it canceled: ‘One Day at a Time,’ ‘Daredevil’
Netflix often doesn’t like long-running TV shows, and sometimes that means great shows get the ax early.
The streaming giant has canceled plenty of shows that upset fans, but were panned by TV critics, such as “Everything Sucks!” and “Gypsy.” But it’s canceled ones that were critically acclaimed, too.
Netflix often doesn’t see the value in shows that exceed 30 total episodes (usually two to three seasons) because they become too expensive and too difficult for new viewers to jump into, Deadline reported earlier this year. That means that shows like “American Vandal,” “One Day at a Time,” and more have been given the boot earlier than fans, and critics, would have hoped.
We’ve rounded up seven shows that Netflix canceled that critics loved from our list of over 100 Netflix original shows, ranked from worst to best by Rotten Tomatoes critic scores.
We highlighted short-lived shows that received an average score of over 85%, and ranked them based on critic scores (we broke ties with audience scores). We excluded shows that are concluding with films, such as “Sense8” and “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.”
