Last week, some media confirmed that the Star Cowboy live-action series was cut by Netflix. The show was aired on November 19th. Although the premiere attracted 74 million views and is one of the top ten most viewed shows, it received a lot of negative comments from the media and audiences, which led to the show being broadcast. A few weeks later, there was a decline in the number of broadcasts. Netflix also relentlessly announced the cancellation of this series, which made the first season of the “Star Cowboy” live-action series the only season.
Currently, on the change.org website, the petition for the restart of the Star Cowboy live-action series is collecting thousands of signatures. There are now 2,800 signatures, and the number is still rising. Fans called on Netflix to continue making this series, and hope that Netflix will give this series another chance to impress the audience.
Of course, there are also audiences celebrating that the series was cut off. These audiences feel that the live-action drama is quite different from the original Star Cowboy comics. Even some fans of the petition agree with this, but they feel that even so, the live-action script of Star Cowboy can be released for another season, and it will not be ruthlessly cut off after only one season.
According to the person who initially revealed the news that the show was cut off, this was because the number of viewers dropped sharply after the first week. But all this shows that Netflix only cares about the short-term, which shows that any future Netflix series must achieve breakthrough success immediately before IP can continue. It sounds cruel, but Netflix doesn’t do it all the time.
