A rant about Netflix - please read

Can I just start by saying, I love the Netflix originals. They’re pretty much the only things I watch nowadays. The Umbrella Academy is my all-time favorite show. Some of my other favorites are The Society, Never Have I Ever, I Am Not Okay With This, Anne with an E, Stranger Things, Daybreak, etc. And they’re all great shows with amazing casts and stories. 

But they get cancelled left and right. I was so excited about all of the new series coming out, but now I don’t even want to start anything else, because more than likely it will get cancelled after one or two seasons. And not in a nice way. There will be open plot lines, missing character development, and the whole show will just be blatantly abandoned. Why?

Money. Apparently, the first season or two makes more money than continuing the show. They would rather rake in the big bucks hooking us on quality first seasons and then dropping the show, before they would keep producing us the quality content we want. 

I’m seeing a pattern here, and I don’t like it. Daybreak? Cancelled after 1 season. It ends on a huge cliffhanger, obviously set up to be another season, and very big hints that a dead character will be resurrected. Except not, because the story will never be finished. I Am Not Okay With This? Awesome cast that excited everybody and certainly delivered. Also the first season ended on a huuuge cliffhanger. Then was dropped. The story will never be finished. Anne with an E? We put up billboards in support of this show being continued - when has that ever happened in the history of ever?! Ryan Reynolds publicly supported the show’s continuation!! Still, not continued. I could seriously go on and on, but I think you get the picture, and you can probably add a few of your own. 

We will NOT let ourselves keep falling for this. They’ve figured out a way to play us, and now we will wise up. This is insulting, honestly. How dare they hook us onto good content, then drop it just because they think they can make MORE money hooking us onto ANOTHER show, that they will also be dropping unexpectedly?? 

Now, don’t even get me started on The Society. I loved that show, so I’m very angry right now. Season 2 was already officially confirmed, promoted, and in the works! Now, all of the sudden they are dropping it due to Covid?? No. No way. If that were true, then Netflix would be cancelling ALL of its series right now. But there are other series in the works, continuing on without a hitch. They’re making a Kissing Booth 3, which is 2 (or arguably 3) too many. Do you see that being cancelled? Nope. There is absolutely no need for another one of those movies, but they’re braving Covid to make that! The Society purposefully leaves you with so many questions and sets you up for at LEAST another season, but still got cancelled. (skip this next chunk if you haven’t watched it yet but plan to)

We will never know: Who was Becca’s baby daddy? Who was the bus driver? How did they end up in New Ham? Why did they end up in New Ham? What happened to Charlie the dog? What happens after the coup (led by the sociopath) takes over the town? What happens to Allie and Will after being arrested? Do the parents know what happened? What exactly is New Ham? And so many more questions, too. And just characters who haven’t fulfilled their arcs, like Harry Bingham, or Grizz and Sam’s relationship. 

We need to be loud. I will not let this keep happening. In a little bit I will post about how to save our precious shows (especially the society), because I think with enough push back it can be done.

I don’t understand why Netflix couldn’t just postpone production of “The Society”.

Literally ALL shows on EVERY network and streaming platform are being impacted by COVID, so Netflix cancelling “The Society” because of COVID is such bullshit.

[ephemeral-amaranthine-oblivion]

Is this legit? I don’t really trust the website, but I’m holding onto any bit of hope!

[grizzing]

So they decided to take away one of the few things I was looking forward to in these times? That’s just fucking great. How about they just postpone it like they did from March to September? Why cancel it completely? All these amazing young actors deserve their bloody screen time man. What was going to happen next? We needed these answers for ages already. #uncancelthesociety #savethesociety

Just want to say Fuck You to Netflix for canceling The Society 🙃

[marvelouslyalwaysme]

if there is a chance that Netflix will let the society get shopped around, I really want HBO to pick the society up like I'm grateful if anyone picks it up but I feel like HBO would fucking kill it with the society, I mean if shits already done like the writing and stuff and they were ready to start filming next month they just somewhere to put it right so why can't HBO be like "cool shots already done, you just somewhere to put it? Oh ok cool out it here" idrk how it all works but like.....you know what I mean

The Society Rewatch Is Today!

Everyone, please rewatch The Society today to show your support of this show! The idea is for everyone to binge the show while posting about it with hashtags like #thesocietyrewatch and #savethesociety 

Even if you are very busy, you can always put the show on in the background of your homework or whatever it is you have to do. Every view counts! Let’s get this show trending!!!

I WANTED MORE GRIZZ AND ALLIE FRIENDSHIP SCENES

I’ll admit, The Society has its flaws and could’ve been more diverse, but it also developed some really enticing character dynamics that were going to be so interesting to further explore along with the mystery of how they ended up where they are.

It’s really shitty of Netflix to promise a renewal and then pull the rug out from under everyone: cast, crew, and fans, especially after a year of no news. Here I was expecting a release date announcement soon, thinking they’d already filmed. Idk what the benefit of cancelling it is when it already has a fanbase and I’m assuming everything for season 2 was already set up and ready to go, it being a year later. Now they’ve lost a show that had loyalty and have to hope whatever new shows they pick up don’t flop. And in terms of the pandemic constraints, they have no problem postponing or funding health and safety measures for other shows.

It’s one thing to just not renew a show. That’s one kind of disappointment. But to renew it, let everyone rejoice, and then take it away is just cruel and stupid.
