My Lady Jane and The Acolyte are just two recent TV shows on a long list that have been unceremoniously (and unfairly) canceled after just a single, eight-episode season.
After"My Lady Jane" And"The Acolyte" Were Canceled, It's Time We Talk About Why It's Important To Let TV Shows Last More Than One Seasonare just two recent TV shows on a long list that have been unceremoniously canceled after just a single, eight-episode season.If you've read any of my work on BuzzFeed, then chances are you're aware that I eat, sleep, and breathe TV.
As soon as the news broke that both shows were not being renewed, conversations started online about what a show has to do to survive past Season 1 and why can't we let original and diverse stories have time to find their fanbases. Instead, they have 10 episodes to find as many fans as shows likeIt’s a generally bleak time for television; not just because of The Acolyte. Everything gets cancelled. Nothing gets a chance to find its footing like before.
It's my job to watch TV, so I often watch shows before or right as they premiere. However, the average TV lover has other things going on. They might not get to a show for a few months, and now they come to find out it's canceled, so why would they bother watching it at all?Some should be allowed to exist in a little silo where the fans are passionate and will tune in week after week. I swear, we will love and support a network or streamer showing that these stories matter.
I've said it before, and I will say it again. We are holding shows, especially diverse ones, to such a high that it is just alienating a very passionate TV fanbase that loves these types of stories and celebrates them. Even if they make it past Season 1, it likely won't last much longer after even that.
warrior nun being canceled is so disappointing. i hate that it's not surprising at this point too. LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and even female-led shows are seemingly held to a higher standard. this same audience should not have to live through this every 👏 timeget at least a chance for a Season 2. I miss watching a show that is truly so special and not having the absolute fear I will have to fight for a second season.
