Thank you all for the show recommendations

Firefly
Dirk Gently’s :( fuck you Netflix.
Seriously, cancelling the show WHEN THEY FUCKING OPEN THE HOLISTIC DETECTIVE AGENCY?? My boy Elijah Wood was soo good on this!!! :((
I don’t understand why Netflix doesn’t just make movies instead of TV shows.
Or make short series instead of multi-season.
They are good at making great first season TV but then if it doesn’t get their magic number they cancel it and leave their customers hanging.
Just make the one season as an open and closed thing and call it that so no one gets their expectations up.
If it becomes some awesome hit thing, make an actual series as an offshoot / spinoff type thing.
Netflix only cares about new subs. New IPs drive new subs. New seasons of old IPs are money spent on people who are already customers. They make one season of a show you’ve been waiting for, you sign up, you watch that season, they cancel the show, statistically speaking you probably don’t cancel your subscription and then they redirect that money to running the same game on someone else.
So… Fuck capitalism?

“Happy”, I think a lot of people overlooked it because Christopher Meloni having a cartoon unicorn as a companion seemed cheesy, but the show wasn’t afraid to dive into truly horrific plot lines.
The less-grounded corner of my brain thinks the show was cancelled because it was openly talking about skeletons in the closets of network executives.
The Walking Dead.
Should have been cancelled like 9 seasons earlier.
Took me a few seasons to figure out that every season was the same. “I think we’ve found a place to settle down, but there might be a problem…”.
Dark Matter 😢
I forgot how that show ended and convinced my SO to watch it. Imagine my absolute HORROR when that time came around and I realized what I had a just done to her. She was devastated.

Sit down, and shut up. I thought it was hilarious, like Rick and Morty, just without aliens
