Seems like everything they made that was good was cancelled after one season. I dumped them for that, then they went all greed and now I hit the high seas if there's something I really want to watch.

All good shows that don't blow up to Stranger Things levels get cancelled and the recommendation algorithm prioritizes mediocre over great. Why would I pay for that ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

It's the Fox model, which is what killed Firefly.

Airing episodes out of order didn't help either

Came late to the party for Firefly but I've watched it. Fuck whoever decided to cancel it.
