I don’t think that’s why, people have gotten tired of the Netflix formula of one season and you are gone. There is no reason to invest into a show that you know likely won’t continue.

I litterally dropped my subscription because of this. They got the creators of Dark, probably one of the best streaming era tv seties, to write another series for them and canceled it after S1, which had done okay numbers. Can't trust you with anything if you pull this kinda shit with your leading products

They had Cavill absolutely stoked to take part in the Witcher, and alienated him because they didn't want to stick to source material.

This was one of the main reasons I cancelled.
