Now that 2024 is over, it’s clear—Netflix canceled more shows than anyone else this year. Honestly, this isn’t shocking anymore. While Netflix has improved in giving some shows final seasons to properly wrap up, it still cancels a lot of series every year, and 2024 was no exception.
Altogether, Netflix canceled 16 shows in 2024. On top of that, six more shows got “final season” orders, which is almost the same as being canceled. The only difference is that these six shows will have a chance to finish their stories properly. If you count both groups, Netflix decided to end 22 shows this year—whether by straight-up canceling them or giving them one last season to say goodbye.
In 2024, Netflix ended 22 shows, and nine of them got canceled after just one season. These shows didn’t get a chance to return for a second season, including Bad Dinosaurs, The Brothers Sun, Buying London, Dead Boy Detectives, Everything Now, Kaos, Obliterated, Ratched, and Scott Pilgrim Takes Off.
Advertisement While Netflix has had big hits, it also has plenty of shows that don’t work out, leading to a lot of cancellations every year. However, Netflix wasn’t the only one saying goodbye to fan-favorite shows in 2024.
Max came in second, canceling nine series during the year. Apple TV+, CBS, and Prime Video followed, each cutting six shows from their lineups. It seems like 2024 was a tough year for many platforms when it came to keeping shows around.
Some networks and streaming platforms had the lowest cancellation rates in 2024, with only one show each getting canceled. This group includes nine platforms: AMC (Parish), BBC America (Orphan Black: Echoes), CNN (King Charles), HBO (Somebody Somewhere, final season), MGM+ (Billy the Kid, final season), National Geographic Channel (Wicked Tuna), Showtime (Uncoupled), TruTV (Tacoma FD), and USA Network (Chucky).
In total, 97 shows were canceled in 2024. Out of these, 78 ended without a proper goodbye, while 21 got a final season to wrap up their stories, either already aired or coming soon.
The bright side is that most shows did get renewed and will return in 2025, giving fans something to look forward to. Still, new shows and seasons next year will likely bring more cancellations. For now, we can take a moment to remember the shows that said goodbye in 2024, whether they ended abruptly or with a final season.
