Teenage Bounty Bounty Hunters Has Been Canceled by Netflix

Teenage Bounty Hunters has been canceled by Netflix, two months after it premiered on the streamer. This makes it the 10th show released in 2020 to be canceled by Netflix after just one season, following shows like Spinning Out, I Am Not Okay With This and AJ and the Queen. News of the show’s cancelation was somewhat overshadowed by the news that fellow Netflix show GLOW was also canceled, as COVID-19 meant the streamer was unable to film such a large ensemble cast in a show that required so much physical contact.

Though the show managed a 13-day run on the Netflix top 10 series chart in the U.S., reaching number three at its peak, in other major Netflix territories the show barely made a dent on the chart. In the U.K., for example, the series only managed to get to number eight, and only remain in the top 10 for three days. Though the show was also a hit in countries like Russia, Ukraine and Austria, where it managed two-week-plus runs on the chart, the show was not a success everywhere.

In the U.S., the show did make the top 100 of the year, and is currently sitting at number 50—under other shows that Netflix canceled this year like I Am Not Okay With This (47) and Altered Carbon (42). When deciding whether or not to renew a show, Netflix tends to look at how many people view the show (and particularly how many new subscribers watch it) and then compare this to how much a show costs to make. This year has been a particularly cancelation-heavy one for Netflix, with a high number of shows not making it past their first season and some big-hitters for the streamer like Dead to Me, Ozark and The Kominsky Method all being renewed for one last season.

The coronavirus has also had a part to play, as shows become harder to make, forcing the streamer into tough decisions. Teenage Bounty Hunters is streaming now on Netflix.

What Was The Rating Of Teenage Bounty Hunters On Rotten Tomatoes?

Teenage Bounty Hunters Netflix I missed this news yesterday, but I was sad to hear this morning that Teenage Bounty Hunters has been cancelled by Netflix, and will not be given a second season. Deadline compares it to “passing on a pilot,” given that Netflix automatically greenlights entire seasons at a time, so if a show doesn’t live past a single year, it’s effectively the same thing. This decision I don’t particularly understand, and I wonder if it might be the sort of COVID-related issue that cancelled GLOW a season early despite the fact that it was supposed to get a fourth and final season.

Teenage Bounty Hunters Netflix What happened here? I genuinely have no idea. They might have been better than the overall show, in fact, and I hope that they land somewhere new, quickly.

A few years ago, this might have been the kind of show that a niche fanbase would have begged Netflix to save after being cancelled by say, FOX. But axed from Netflix itself, it does not seem likely that it will show up anywhere else and this really is the end. You can’t win them all, but between the cancellation of both this and GLOW it’s been a rough week for Netflix’s high quality, female-centric series, and I hope this trend does not continue.

What Streaming Service Has Canceled Teenage Bounty Hunters After One Season?

Netflix’s teenage bounty hunting days are over. EW has confirmed that the streaming service has canceled Teenage Bounty Hunters after one season. Deadline first reported this news.

The comedy unflinchingly tackled issues like female pleasure, sexuality, and LGBTQ relationships through the lens of religion, showing how all can exist in harmony with each other. The season 1 finale ended on a cliffhanger, revealing not just one but two shocking twin twists as Sterling and Blair discovered they’re cousins, not sisters, after learning their mom had a secret twin of her own. That’s been a part of the show from the beginning and it informs how we built their relationship and how we built their family, creator Kathleen Jordan previously told EW about the cliffhanger.

That’s something that we want to definitely explore in a hopeful season 2. Teenage Bounty Hunters’ cancelation comes hot on the heels of the announcement that Netflix has also retroactively canceled GLOW, another series produced by Jenji Kohan, despite it previously getting a fourth and final season renewal. Plus YA series The Society and I Am Not Okay With This were both supposed to get sophomore seasons but were axed back in August.
