Recommended Posts

Is it just us or are more shows getting canceled on TV and streaming services now after just one season?

We recently saw Amazon cancel its My Lady Jane series after one season. Disney+ just canceled the Star Wars show The Acolyte after just one season. Disney+ also canceled Renegade Nell, again after just one season. Even The Muppets Mayhem didn’t survive the one-season cancelation curse on Disney+. Well, we’ve got some bad news about a new show on Netflix, too: Dead Boy Detectives has been canceled after one season.

According to The Hollywood ReporterDead Boy Detectives has been canceled by Netflix after just one season. The series followed a duo of ghosts and a medium who joined forces to become detectives for the supernatural. The characters originated in the Sandman comics and were created by Neil Gaiman, Matt Wagner, and Malcolm Jones III and went on to star in their own comic book series before being adapted to live-action for the Netflix show.

In the live-action adaptation, the characters were initially introduced in an episode of the Max series Doom Patrol. Interestingly enough, the Dead Boy Detectives series was originally slated for Max, but then moved over to Netflix for its first season. On Netflix, it spent three weeks on its top 10 for English-language series with about 9.6 million views at the time. It was also among Nielsen’s top 10 original streaming shows twice shortly after its premiere. So, needless to say, this cancelation is a big surprising.

Dead Boy Detectives was set in the same universe as another Netflix show (also based on a comic book series), Sandman. The Sandman series, however, is receiving a second season. It’s unclear why Netflix made its decision to cancel Dead Boy Detectives, given its popularity, but many of these cancelations often leave us scratching our heads, leaving viewers less likely to start other new shows if they haven’t yet been renewed for additional seasons.
