The Chair – Image: Netflix
Formally we’re but to listen to about the way forward for The Chair however by most accounts and based mostly purely on efficiency, we are able to just about safely assume the present is not going to be returning.
We imagine it’s not returning as a result of Sandra Oh, the primary star of the present, spoke to Selection in early 2022, saying that she guesses it’s “not occurring”.
Journey Beast
Canceled at Netflix: June 2022
We completely reported the truth that Journey Beast is “unlikely” to return to Netflix in accordance with one of many producers on the venture.

The Midnight Gospel
Canceled at Netflix: June 2022

First premiering again in October 2021, Fairly Good struggled to get into the mainstream (a recurring downside for multi-cam sitcoms on Netflix) and was ultimately introduced to be canceled on April twenty seventh alongside the information that Emily Osment would now be a full-timer on Younger Sheldon.
On the Verge
Canceled: April 2022

The present was quietly canceled and if it weren’t for a reply to an Instagram remark, we wouldn’t have even identified it had been canned.
Alien TV
Canceled: Unclear – reported in April 2022
Working for 2 seasons on Netflix is the Australian-produced youngsters collection specializing in alien reporters Ixbee, Pixbee, and Squee.
We realized that the present isn’t set to return for future episodes in early 2022. Nevertheless, the creators of the present have been eager to emphasize that the door is open for future episodes down the highway.
Diablero
Canceled: March 2022 (though probably canceled some time in the past)
The Mexican collection Diablero ran for 2 seasons on Netflix with the newest season touchdown in 2022. Sadly, we realized completely that it’s going to not be returning for a 3rd season on Netflix, rendering it canceled.
Archive 81
Canceled: March twenty fourth
One of many first main debuts reveals on Netflix in 2022 was Archive 81, a brand new horror collection based mostly on a podcast collection of the identical title.
Whereas the present did prime Netflix’s prime 10s, there’s proof that viewership dropoff between episodes might’ve been the rationale for the early demise of Archive 81.
The Child-Sitters Membership
Canceled: March eleventh
First debuting in October 2020, The Child-Sitters Membership got here from Rachel Shukert and ultimately went on to run for 2 seasons on Netflix however received’t return for a 3rd.
In an announcement to Deadline, Frank Smith from Walden Media mentioned:
“We’re extremely grateful for Netflix’s imaginative and prescient and help in bringing the world of The Babysitters Membership to life. Although we’re saddened the collection has come to an finish, we look ahead to future alternatives to share the legacy of Ann M Martin’s beloved work with new audiences.”
No motive was given for the cancelation however low viewership probably was the rationale.
Gentefied
Canceled: January thirteenth
After arguably defying the percentages to get to a second season, Gentefied didn’t get renewed for a 3rd season, with the cancelation information coming in early January 2022.
Whereas it did break into the Netflix TV prime 10s within the US, it solely did so for 9 days earlier than dropping out.

The collection has a 5.3 on IMDb with a 34 on Metacritic.
One other Life (Season 3)
Canceled: February twenty first
It was by no means a matter of if, and solely a matter of when it was confirmed that Netflix had canceled One other Life.
We will assume the collection had been dropped by Netflix as early as December 2021, because of a tweet from Katie Sackhoff that closely hinted on the present’s destiny.
Regardless of its personal loyal fan following it shouldn’t come as an excessive amount of of a shock that One other Life was canceled. The collection didn’t impress followers and critics alike and easily didn’t have an viewers massive sufficient for Netflix to speculate more cash.
