Netflix has a shame for wealth in its library of emissions in the application catalog and can be difficult to find a great show between that sea of ​​options. But a fast -paced social media scroll shows that anyone who pays attention to that there are dedicated fanbags for every show floating to the Top 10 on Netflix, not long ago, "1899" rode high on the streaming service and watched a possible season 2 after mostly positive reviews from critics and bubbles. Netflix decided to cancel the mystery thriller, despite those strong numbersAnd it really was reduced to budget problems and other production risks by advancing forward.

"1899" came to Netflix by Jane Friez and Baran Bo Odar - the two creators Already pets of service for their work on "dark" As early as 2017 - with high expectations, the show had the wind on its back in early walking. First impressions are ruled by the Supreme era of TV streaming and movies, just getting that positive word from the mouth can be the difference between literal life and death for several programs outside Netflix's red borders. The first season of a mysterious show is difficult to reach over 70% of rotten tomatoes In such a crowded market, and "1899" stands at 75% of the audience at the moment.

It is reasonable to assume that over time, as well as "Dark" managed to do before, "1899" would be able to build a little steam in the coming seasons with more people listening to the show and the way cheering culture wants to deal with mysteries together in the last 5 years. The formula is there, and Netflix could follow it if they cared, but there was only one big problem: why chase a small fish when you already have an authorized whale on the line? There was simply no sense of people up at that moment of time.

The fast scanning of the Netflix top 10 rankings will give a variety of shows and movies, with live networking activities like "one piece" and "strange things", some plays such as Breadon or "Instant Family" and real TV program like "too hot to handle" or ". Just like on broadcasting television, directors will give it to all reality programs because they are cheaper if the studio is forced to choose between scripted shows and these budget options. (There is nothing inherently bad about loving TV of reality, but it's hard to miss the fact that his presence has actively hurt the narrative storytelling on TV.)

Unfortunately for "1899", this is not even the case, because it was broadcast along with another script program at its premiere week, "Wednesday". As soon as that happened, The end was probably near for the pleasant "dark" heirAs is the wonderful turn of Enena Ortega as the character "Family Adams" went to Clober, whatever he debuted against. The viewing numbers from the Netflix itself Show that strict contrast even for the fiercest defender "1899", as "Wednesday" brought to a stunning 507,700,000 hours while the poor "1899" settled by 51.8 million during the first 7 months of service. It's too too much to fight a little expensive bubble show already.

Add to some plagiarism claims, which have been abolished by social media creators since then (H/t for unilad for screengrabbing on exchange)And the picture begins to form that Netflix made the easiest decision for itself as a business. They didn't even have to oppose any of the controversy if they were just pushing what was popular and relyed on the shooting stable on the shows they had already had under their umbrella. So, "1899" joined other plays, essentially lost at sea with little hope of avoiding the streaming version of the Bermuda triangle.
