Effing Netflix! I thought this was a popular show for them and was pretty confident for a fourth season. I didn't even finish this season yet, so now I am really going to take my time with it seeing that will be the end.
I am very disappointed. It's one of the funniest shows out at the moment and unlike a lot of shows it is well-written. There are so many great, quotable lines and the actors are all very impressive. I tend to get Netflix for a month or two to catch up on something I want to watch then cancel it for a while.
This time I renewed my membership mainly for Santa Clarita Diet. I have now cancelled my membership again and given this cancellation as my reason. Normally if a show I like gets cancelled i hope that Netflix will pick it up but this definitely feels like the end. This is why I think Netflix will ultimately lose in the streaming wars. They actually do. The problem is that they cancel their own content after two or three seasons and call it a success. I would rather spend my limited funds on a service that I know has a better chance of following through on a show to the end for better and worse.
We weren't thrilled with this season, still have 2 episodes left to go and usually binge them all at once. But we loved the first season and thought season two was even better. The cast on this show has been amazing. The writing has been so clever and smart. Definitely sorry to see it go. What is Netflix thinking. Everyone is going to start having streaming services.
If they keep canceling the shows that are the reason I'm keeping my sub, what reason do I need to keep them. I'll stop checking out their shows and cancel and spend money on the others. The other big issue is that Netflix used to be known for at least giving their shows a closure if they did end. They never ended their shows on a cliffhanger when they had the quality over quantity factor.
