Happy New Year! Netflix has cancelled another series. This time around it's 1899, the long-anticipated new series from the creators of Dark, where Dark is ...

But it really has gotten to the point where instead of watching a show at release, you want to wait 4-6 months to see if Netflix is actually going to renew it, and then consider watching it. If not, you get The Midnight Club or Archive 81 or now, 1899. I wonder if in 2022, Dark season 1 would have performed well enough to be renewed by Netflix’s current standards, or in this new era they might have killed one of the best sci-fi series ever before it fully unfolded. If you’re lucky, you get a show that limps along to its finish line like Locke and Key or The Umbrella Academy. I don’t need to go through the grand list of shows Netflix has killed the past few years for the millionth of time. 1899, by contrast, was another wild experiment, this time focused on the warped reality of a group of strangers trapped on a ship where mysterious things happen and people keep dying.

1899 has been cancelled by Netflix after only one season, but why was 1899 cancelled – and what are the chances of season 2 or a spinoff?

In April 2018, Netflix's vice president at the time, Cindy Holland, explained to [Radio Times](http://sense8/) that the "audience size and budget" is what led to that show's demise, but "fan love" led to them commissioning one more special to tie everything together. [Wednesday's record-breaking figures](https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/ustv/a42106085/netflix-wednesday-ratings-viewers/), they were still better than you might expect given the show's demise. Still vague, we know, but we wouldn't expect more story details to emerge just yet, not so soon after the cancellation. You're just trying to be flexible, to really allow the process to surprise you while you’re going through it, but still kind of knowing where you’re sailing to." [Especially after that final scene...](https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/a41991710/1899-ending-explained-netflix/) [NetflixLife.com](https://netflixlife.com/2022/11/16/is-1899-season-2-happening-release-updates/)), which was substantially more than other Netflix trailers around that same period. We want to know where we are going." Even when a show like 1899 does perform decently enough, other considerations like cost need to be weighed up too, and it looks like the odds weren't in their favour. You read a code and you expect something and you feel safe in that. By the end of that first week, Netflix revealed that 1899 had reached [87.9 million hours viewed](https://deadline.com/2022/11/wednesday-breaks-record-most-hours-viewed-netflix-ratings-1235184006/) total (via [Deadline](https://deadline.com/2022/11/wednesday-breaks-record-most-hours-viewed-netflix-ratings-1235184006/)).

The original plan was to create three seasons for this globe-spanning saga, but the story's now been sunk just one season in.
