It’s been revealed that Netflix has cancelled the most amount of shows from any streaming platform in 2024.
The streamer announced 16 shows were ending last year as well as giving six additional shows a final season before they wrap up for good.
Out of the total 22 shows, nine series were given their marching orders after just one season, with no second instalments being handed out. These include Bad Dinasours, The Brothers Sun, Buying London, Dead Boy Detectives, Everything Now, Kaos, Obilterated, Ratched and Scott Pilgrim Takes Off.
Adding to the shows that aren’t coming back are Arcane, Barbarians, Break Point, Buying Beverly Hills, Girls5Ever, My Dad The Bounty Hunter and That 90s Show.
Fans will be devastated to know that several successful shows have not been renewed despite being fan favourites.
Avatar is ending with a third and final season, Blood of Zeus has one series left and Outer Banks’ fifth instalment will be its last.
Additionally, the super popular Stranger Things will air its fifth and final season this year, wrapping up the stories of the Hawkins kids.
After recently releasing the second season of Squid Game, Netflix has also previously revealed that the last season will release in 2025.
Aside from Netflix, AppleTV+ cancelled six shows in 2024 including Constellation, Silo and Time Bandits. Meanwhile Disney+ announced that American Born Chinese and Star Wars spin-off The Acolyte will not be returning.

However, subscribers shouldn’t be too down about this news as there are still plenty of great shows to look forward to on Netflix. After just airing its sixth season, romantic drama Virgin River has already been renewed for a seventh series.
Another romantic drama that is coming back is Sweet Magnolias which will premiere its fourth season in February. Bridgerton, Ginny & Georgia, The Diplomat, Emily in Paris, Wednesday and Nobody Wants This will be back too as well as many others.
