Quote:1899 cancellation proves a sad truth about Netflix
Back in 2017, Baran Bo Odar and Jantje Friese changed streaming audiences’ perception of international TV with Dark, the mind-bending German time travel series. After three successful seasons, it seemed like its creators would have a blank check to create a new franchise.
Their follow-up was 1899, a multi-language maritime thriller and one of Netflix’s most anticipated shows. Like Dark, it was a slow-burn “mystery box” show, ending with a shocking reveal that was practically begging for a Season 2 renewal. But now the series has been unceremoniously canceled. What happened to prompt a flop from such proven talent? The issue isn’t the show itself, but the environment it was released into.
Go figure! >_<
I just finally got around to watching it and literally just finished this show today. I was thinking to myself, 'I wonder if they'll do a second season. It was pretty good.'
If anyone else liked this show, I recommend The Devil's Hour on Amazon. It's the sort of show that I found myself re-watching the first couple episodes of after finishing the last because all the little random details at the beginning finally made sense.
I watched that show a few months back. First new mystery show I've watched where you really have to pay attention. Her son (little boy) had me guessing right until near end. Really right up to last episode had me engaged and rare show these days where the ending has closure, but left wide open for a second season.
The Devil’s Hour season 2 and season 3 have been confirmed by Prime Video
