It's to the point now where there is no point in watching any series because they all get cancelled after one season now

I don't think I've watched a single show which has been canceled after the first season.

You need to be more disciminating.

I'm binging The Mayor of Kingstown featuring Jeremy Renner. It's a good watch

I thought Three Pines was interesting enough for more seasons, cancelled. People seemed to like 1899, I never watched it, but cancelled.
It's becoming a self fulfilling prophecy, no one wants to watch season one of a show because it probably would get cancelled, so wait until there are multiple seasons first, but then since no one watched season one the show doesn't get more seasons.

Yeah, it’s really REALLY good. We’re watching The Last Kingdom now, also exceptionally good!

Freaks and Geeks is the only show I watched that lasted one season.

I enjoyed Poker Face, looking forward to season 2. The Glory on Netflix was also good (long slow revenge story).

Great show. This and Firefly are usually the most common examples, but yeah, not as often as it's made out to be.

I think the problem that he is trying to articulate is that they're throwing so many new shows out there and many of them are crap.

So rather than watch season 1 and get hooked, it's best just to skip anything new until you know there will be more than 1 season.

As a general rule, I won't even start a series that has only 1 season because more than likely, it's going to get canceled. This really isn't a problem with series' I'm already watching.

Yep. Unless the show is an immediate huge hit it’s not really safe to watch anything until a renewal has been announced. Although these days some renewed shows have been canceled.

This would be less of a problem if it wasn’t so common to end a season on a cliffhanger.

Exactly. I've run into both situations in the past. It's bad when the season builds up to a big cliff hanger and then poof, canceled. But the worst is when they announce another season and then it never happens. The one show I can think of was at the end of season 4 with a cliffhanger, they announced season 5 and then canceled it right before release.

Thanks for the rec. Halfway through season 1 and really enjoying it. Definitely never would've come across it otherwise.

Just an FYI... the wife and I just wrapped up Season 3 and it is an excellent show but there isn't going to be a Season 4. The wife and I both thought it was a good way to end the show but also leaves you wanting another season or 2.
