That was probably nothing: Netflix decided to end a series after just one season.
Probably the bad reviews put off the streaming service.
In the middle of the series * that
Netflix
released in 2020, there is also one or the other flop.
At least the professional critics of the Rotten Tomatoes film website agree that a production did not deserve top marks.
We are talking about the satirical cartoon series
"Hoops"
, which started in August 2020 on the streaming service.
She received just 14 percent of a possible 100 percent from the Rotten Tomatoes members.
But at least the general audience was a bit more gracious than the professional critics.
They rated the series with an average of 49 percent.
Netflix puts the cartoon series "Hoops" off after just one season
Netflix
seemed
to have taken the
reviews
relatively seriously.
As
Variety
reported exclusively, the streaming service has decided
not to continue
"Hoops"
after the first season.
According to the magazine, insiders pointed to the balance between the cost of a series and the number of viewers.
Obviously, the satirical production was very expensive, but could not attract many users.
With
"Hoops"
Netflix
probably
wanted to build
on the success of similar animated series for adults.
Since productions like “Big Mouth”, “Disenchantment” or “BoJack Horseman” received, or still do, several seasons, they seem to be much more popular with subscribers.
