'Cowboy Bebop' Fans React After Netflix Suddenly Cancels Show After 1 Season
12/10/2021 02:36 pm EST
Netflix should 'reconsider' the cancellation
"No, I actually liked this adaptation. Why cancel it after setting up the second season of the show?" asked one person. "C'mon people, everything can't be like it was in the anime."
'Such a Netflix thing to do'
"It wasnt awful but it wasnt great. I think there WAS potential there though & giving it a 2nd season, especially with Ed coming in, could've saved it & given them a chance to fix things," added somebody else. "Canceling now just makes the entire thing a waste. But this is such a Netflix thing to do."
The show brought fans 'so much joy'
"[Cowboy Bebop] was so special to me. The PoC sci-fi representation I've wanted all my life. I want to thank [John Cho], [Mustafa Shakir], [Daniella Pineda], Mason Park, the whole creative team," wrote one fan. "In one of the most difficult years of my life, this show, brought me so much joy."
Subscribers upset with Netflix's cancellation history
"I think I might start not watching any new series on [Netflix] until they're concluded. Getting so tired of starting something good just to have them cancel it. [Cowboy Bebop] was the final straw," wrote one person in response to Netflix' tendency to cancel series after just one or two seasons. "Start respecting your viewers, Netflix."
'Really disappointed'
"This sucks," shared somebody else. "I know the show wasn't perfect but I think john cho, mustafa shakir, and daniella pineda did a solid job. I was actually interested to see what they would do with a second season."
'Such a bummer'
"I liked the show. I hate anime," tweeted one viewer. "The people who liked the original were never going to like the live action. Did they know their audience?"
'Really upset'
"I'm really upset. Long time fan of the original anime, and I can definitely say if you couldn't see the creators love and passion for this adaptation you're blind," tweeted another viewer. "The acting was natural and the atmosphere was on par. And Ed was just perfect."
