Cancellations and Renewals: 'Never Have I Ever' Fans Prayers Answered
Never Have I Ever - Netflix
When Netflix users stopped watching broadcast television, 58 hours of commercials were skipped, according to a new study from Kill the Cable Bill. With millions of dollars worth of commercial time avoided, Netflix users’ daily average stream time grew from two hours a day before to 3.2 hours during the quarantine. In total, Kill the Cable Bill said, Netflix’s nearly 64 million subscribers saved themselves from watching a collective 3.7 billion hours of commercials.
Netflix is leading the streaming war upfront with a number of successful series under its belt. Mindy Kaling’s coming-of-age comedy series Never Have I Ever is renewed for a second season and scored 90% with the audience on Rotten Tomatoes. Another popular series, Sex Education, is set to return for a third season.
Disney+ is catching up with other streaming services, providing family-friendly original series like High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, with the first season earning a 80% on Rotten Tomatoes, is renewed for a second season.
Amazon is also a powerhouse when it comes to producing high quality originals like The Expanse (96% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes), renewed for a fifth season, and Undone (93% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes) , renewed for a second season.
Apple TV+, however, has been producing series not favored by the critics like See (44% average Tomatometer) and Truth Be Told (32% average Tomatometer), though it has established an audience of its own.
