All That Glitters
While Netflix may be adding a bunch of awesome shows and movies in July, the company has also been trying to be much more selective about what content is going to be available for streaming. In fact, Netflix has recently canceled several shows. Check out the list of Netflix shows that have been discontinued below.

After only one season, Netflix decided not to continue with Baz Luhrmann's The Get Down. The streaming service historically gave almost every series a second season but opted out of continuing the musical drama. The Get Down was one of Netflix's most expensive shows, costing about $120 million.
Before the show was canceled Baz Luhrmann explained that he already developed Season 2. However, it will not be seeing the light of day.
"To be honest, we have already developed the opening of the next season," he said, according to Deadline. "Sony and Netflix have been very driven about having a second season. There has been no question about that. They really want it."
After the cancellation, Luhrmann took to Facebook to comment on the situation. The award-winning director claimed that the cause behind the decision to pull the plug was based on the fact that he wasn't going to be able to be heavily involved with the second season.
"This exclusivity has understandably become a sticking point for Netflix and Sony, who have been tremendous partners and supporters of the show," he wrote. "It kills me that I can't split myself into two and make myself available to both productions… But the simple truth is, I make movies."

Another Netflix cancellation worth mentioning is Marco Polo. The series was grandiose in scale and required a significant investment of time and money to bring the epic tale to the screen. Much to the disappointment of the fans, the total viewership numbers, which Netflix does not release in full detail, did not justify the high costs.
Several other shows on Netflix weren't exactly canceled recently but rather were given a definitive ending date. Series like Longmire, The Killing, and family drama Bloodline all fell into this category.
Netflix's first major cancellations came in 2015 when Lilyhammer and Hemlock Grove were given the ax. The former was a Norwegian-American series that lasted four seasons. Hemlock Grove was extended a little more courtesy than Lilyhammer as the producers were informed that there would be no more seasons after the third.
While several of these beloved Netflix shows won't be getting more seasons, there is a number of thrilling titles that are hitting the streaming service in June.
