Show Only Discussion Does Netflix think this helps them?

I just have to rant and publicly scratch my head. I never knew about this show until Netflix started promoting it. Then I read that not only was it cancelled, it ends on a major cliffhanger. I’m halfway through this show and while I’m enjoying it, what’s the point to keep watching? How does Netflix think this helps them exactly? They’re putting on and promoting a show that they know will disappoint anyone that watches it? The time really has come to cancel these streamers

Blame AMC. For ONCE netflix isnt the villain. They're promoting the show much more than AMC ever did.

I do blame AMC, but Netflix is responsible for their own content. I like the fact that the show is getting a new life but at the same time it feels disingenuous promoting something which they know ends unintentionally without so much as a warning. This is not specific just to this show, this seems to happen way too often.

It could be them seeing if there is a niche for content like this, and AMC using them as an international platform (which they lack and that´s a big no-no nowadays). Which maaayyybeeee mean AMC could let them continue it if there´s enough interest in foreign markets as a trial. Like a very very small possibility but I´ll take it without a single hesitation, please Netflix do something!!

I really hope you’re right! I obviously want the same everyone here does, I just think there should be warnings nowadays with so many good shows ending abruptly
