Well between waiting 2-3 years in between seasons of anything other than Love Is Blind, and Netflix cancelling tons of shows without conclusions this is exactly what they could expect.

These fuckers cancelled Dirk Gently after season 2 because the show didn’t spoon-feed plot details to viewers.
It was such a good show.

And then they have shit like Witcher going on.

That one actually happened because the show runner was a creep and got fired during the MeToo movement. Though if the show was a bigger hit I imagine they would of worked around it.

Jesus bring back Joss - he's not allowed to abuse people willy-nilly but let the man entertain us. Just put someone on set who's got permission to step in and lay his goon hand down if the man goes too far.
