Streamers have been removing content from their platforms lately — and they’re canceling series after just one season. “It’s soul-crushing,” says one creator. “There is nothing we can do.”

    Interesting, so would you say the ratios were similar between streaming and non-streaming networks?

    I have reddit blocked at the router level so I can’t view anything on that site (still boycotting the company lol)

      My intuition is that it’s probably in about the same range as the broadcast networks, but I have no numbers to back that up.

      I don’t think it can be significantly higher or lower: if the cancellation rate were significantly lower, “streaming services always cancel after one season” wouldn’t have caught on as a perception, and if it were significantly higher, it wouldn’t be as easy to find multi-season streaming shows as it currently is. But is it slightly higher or lower? I have no idea.
