Welp, the series has been cancelled (old news, I know) after a 200mil loss for Netflix.

Just wondering what everyone's opinion of the show is for the 2 seasons it did last.

Personally I thought the costumes, scenery and setting were awesome (probably why the cost was so high) but the acting was extremely poor in general. The people who portrayed Marco and the Blue Princess were especially bad and they were two of the main characters, which made it much worse.

Hundred Eyes was a badass character but way too OP, he was like an even stronger Daredevil.

Average overall, I guess?

I'm a bit confused by this sentence... Doesn't all of the Netflix original bullshit lose them money? I mean without commercials or any real way to attribute any of the subscription money to any specific show/movie...

This, how can you attribute losses when revenue is based off subscriptions? Possibly prorate for amount of vewership for each original production?

I don't know, read an article that stated it. I mean it's just a random article so it could be false info but I don't understand why they would just make something up like that randomly, I assume they got it from Netflix.
