I think So Long, Marianne is a famous song?
This has been my feeling for awhile now. I don't think I'll ever start another Netflix original unless it's already into its second or third season with strong support.if you get invested in a Netflix show and it gets cancelled you've got nobody to blame but yourself
I wasn't pushing that much for a title, more for the VERY EASY PUN.People would have to care about the show before it gets a thread title.
Leonard Cohen song. There was a documentary last year about his relationship to Marianne too.
I heard of Marianne when it hit Netflix and intended to watch it but Netflix's shitty Al Gore didn't deem it worthy of my recommendations so out of sight, out of mind it went. 🤷♂️
If magic comes from pain, then a lot of folks are gonna be pulling hankies out of a hat today because it has just announced that The Magicians will be ending with its current fifth season, concluding with the April 1 episode.
"The Magicians has been a part of our Syfy family for five fantastic seasons. As we near the end of this journey, we want to thank John McNamara, Sera Gamble, Henry Alonso Myers, Lev Grossman, and our entire brilliant cast, crew, writers and directors for their beautiful creation. But most of all, we thank the fans for their tremendous support and passion. Because of you, magic will be in our hearts forever," the network said in a statement.
Did they know this would be the last season of The Magicians when they wrote and filmed it?
They said they wrote this finale with the expectation it could be the end. S4 -> S5 is the only time they said they went into a finale knowing they were renewed.
That's good. Still haven't watched the show but planned to eventually.
Those things don't clash, they are cause and effect.not to play devil's advocate, but going "bad netflix canceling all the shows!" at the same time seeing the thread full of "never watched / heard of it" is ironic to say the least. Reminds me people in gaming crying when games don't get sequels, except nobody bought the first one :p
Its a direct result of relying on poor machine learning algorithms to decide what people like for them, and bombarding the customers with choice by releasing at least five new shows, documentaries and movies a week.not to play devil's advocate, but going "bad netflix canceling all the shows!" at the same time seeing the thread full of "never watched / heard of it" is ironic to say the least.

About as much time as Netflix spent promoting it.Lol Marainne won't have even gotten the thread title for a full 24 hours
I would think there'd be a magic-related title or something. Like "Syfy Makes The Magicians...Disappear! *jazz hands*"Lol Marainne won't have even gotten the thread title for a full 24 hours
"So Long, Marianne. Farewell, The Magicians"
I'll miss The Magicians but five years is a solid run. It's amazing how much better the show was than the books.
Oh thank god. Would've been so annoyed if it ended on a huge cliffhanger.They said they wrote this finale with the expectation it could be the end. S4 -> S5 is the only time they said they went into a finale knowing they were renewed.
Syfy cuts Magicians after demands to be taken very seriously.I would think there'd be a magic-related title or something. Like "Syfy Makes The Magicians...Disappear! *jazz hands*"
It was announced back in January.Weird, I thought Marianne was announced to be cancelled a few months ago. I'm fine with it as a miniseries rather them stretching it out more.
Going forward, FX is changing up its scheduling strategy for all original shows on FX and FXX, as well as its digital FX on Hulu series: The season premieres of all new shows will include at least two episodes airing that first night (or, in the case of FX on Hulu shows, available to stream on premiere day), with an additional episode following each week. Previously, shows would debut with a single episode.
The premiere shift, inspired by new Disney corporate sibling Hulu, was FX's solution to its ongoing "dilemma" about whether to shift to the binge model embraced by streaming rivals like Netflix, in which an entire season of a series is dropped at once, said FX Networks chairman John Landgraf.
...So, all shows will air for one week less?
And THAT'S supposed to be their grand compromise?

I'm starting to think they will just split Season 5 in two different seasons instead of splitting it in two parts.Lucifer's final season is looking less and less final.

It's worth it for ep one and two. The third just didn't make any god damn senseStarted watching Dracula and I'm loving the first episode but I'm NOT looking forward to the third episode given what everyone says :(
Oh, so it truly IS a Moffat/Gatiss show.It's worth it for ep one and two. The third just didn't make any god damn sense
Haven't seen it mentioned here but Atypical got renewed for a 4th and final season. So so so damn happy that this show exists, it's so sweet. While I'm sad it's ending, at least it gets to end on its own terms.
What even is Syfy anymore? They have practically zero original programming left.
