I'm only in for Supernatural spinoff if they make it the polar opposite of its originating show. It needs to kill off basically every male character that it introduces. The scales must be balanced.

So was Still Star Crossed the TV show that people kept saying was a summer budget disaster and the network tried to pawn off for cheap to netflix? I haven't watched it but 3 episodes are out.
The only other possibility I think was Midnight, Texas?

After that super mega guest star! rumour (I don't even remember who it turned out to be), I'm sure people are making this rumour out to be bigger than it actually is.

lol, me too...
The only thing I remember is that it wasn't the Jack Lord's "cameo" in Hawaii Five-0.
It was Jon Hamm in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo on "Last Man on Earth."
Waaaaay oversold.

That's Ausiello for you. lol
I forgot that CG monstrosity. lol

Man, not having a good British TV news source means I missed that The Trip to Spain came out. I guess with peak TV, people don't even bother covering non-American TV anymore because I feel like it would have been a big thing any other time.
So almost the entire cast of Taken has left the show.

Left or escaped?
Oh, maybe you're thinking of Emily Swallow? She was the Big Bad in season 11.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Season 2 is going meta and is about getting the actors from the show back.

That and the talk of a revamp are not a good sign, not that the show was great to begin with but that sounds worse unless they're casting new people to fill in for the supporting characters that were part of the team Bryan has in the movies. I haven't watched the last couple episodes but on the other end there's not much to miss with most of them on the show.

I guess I missed that Seeso is pretty much on its last legs and laid off most of its staff?

I didn't watch it for very long, but Still Star Crossed didn't seem that bad. Definitely not for me, yet I had a harder time getting through Blindspot episodes

Many people thought it was Still Star-Crossed, but I don't think it was that show.

I think that it was "I'm Dying Up Here."
High profile producer? Yup.
Critically mauled? Yup.
Only thing is, it's a comedy series, but it's one of those dramedies, so Ausiello might have fudged things a bit. It might not be what Ausiello had in mind, but it fits very well.

Ausiello has been doing these types of rumours for over a decade. It doesn't matter what the real answer was I suppose. lol
He actually does confirm them though.

Just when I thought I had blocked I'm Dying Up Here out of my mind...I wouldn't be shocked.
If memory serves correctly, Starz gave up on Flesh & Bone right before its premiere and threw all the episodes up on their streaming apps at once. Maybe Showtime was thinking about doing the same with I'm Dying Up Here.

I guess he's always "leaked" stuff that was so far ahead that I never bothered to check. I mean he was doing this back when people followed TV Guide for hot scoops.
(Remember TV Guide???)

He's not confirmed a couple though.
This one about the "hit" series that's been cancelled.
And this one about a romance getting rocked by a seasons-old loose thread.

Insert farm joke here?
I would have gone with "Disney revives Old Yeller on ABC".

Girlboss cancelled after one season by Netflix Boss
At the bottom of the second article it links to the blind item reveal.

Is there another glass ceiling joke for girlboss, or just one about going bankrupt?

Can't say I'm surprised about Girlboss, didn't seem to have a lot of buzz and the reviews seemed middling.

Oh wow, they're even cancelling cheap comedies now! Did it end on a cliffhanger?
What's next on Netflix's cancellation block? Iron Fist? (maybe they can fold him into Luke Cage season two?) Flaked?

I personally don't mind Britt Robertson in certain roles, but I don't know how she keeps getting high profile work. Under the Dome, Tomorrowland, Mother's Day, Mr. Church, The Space Between Us, and now Girlboss. And that's just in the last 3 years. Everything she's been attached to has either been awful, a financial failure, or both.
To the surprise of no one, like was they that short on sitcoms?
I doubt they would touch any of the Marvel stuff
RatskyWatsky
Hunky Nostradamus
OTOH, they do have Punisher coming up, so I think they could afford to cut that one out of their lineup.
If they do that, i hope they take a chance on doing one and done season for some other characters.

It would certainly help keep things from feeling too stale...
Flaked should be dead soon, they gave Girlboss two months and Flaked S2 just dropped to absolutely nobody noticing.
Marvel stuff needs an overhaul. Rushed production without enough stories to fill the runtime, hopefully Iron Fist (and to a lesser extent the others) is a lesson there. Netflix dramas in general are really starting to fatigue, 13 episodes @ 50min is just exhausting.

It's always going to be weird when shows like Girlboss get cancelled, since we won't know unless Ted or someone else flat out says why it was cancelled. Was it the low viewership? Low reviews? The potentially unlikable lead? Everyone decided to bail? Or all of the above, even?
The way it came out of the showrunner's Instagram account is real weird, as are the "controlling my narrative" and "caricature" comments.
They probably know what's better for their audiences from the licensed stuff that they have to stagger (like Riverdale internationally). Amy Sherman Palladino wanted Gilmore Girls to be staggered but Netflix said nope.
Shorter or split seasons seems a lot more likely.
Afaik they don't even give straight answers to showrunners

GLOW has been such a breath of fresh air. Now, that's partly due to the writing, of course, but it also has a lot to do with the episodes being only 30 minutes long. You can easily get through a season in just a sitting or two without feeling like it took up your whole weekend.
Ack youre watching? Your complete absence from the OT made me think you skipped it.
And it's scary that Netflix cancels shit like a normal network now
