What do you think? Are you a fan of the Mozart in the Jungle TV series? Is it ending at the right time, or too soon? If it were up to you, would Amazon cancel or renew Mozart in the Jungle for season five? Sound off, in the comments.
Very bad decision to end this very intelligent and very touching series, which deepened along the way. You definitely can do another season… the different themes, the theme of artistic integrity and or versus success, of being taken seriously as a woman, of the relationship between art and displacement,of family and belonging, all very interesting and very well written and acted. Disappointed that there will be no 5th season.
Just binge watched Mozart in the Jungle.. Gosh.. Can’t believe the show was canceled – almost like in a whim. The new head at Amazon sucks!! Now I almost get who turned GOT SUCKY after Season 5.. It went schizo.. And one couldn’t relate anymore with who and what the plot and characters were up to. Well in a way it’s good that the writers and directors didn’t cow down and turn it into schmuck like they did with GOT. I wish there was a way stuff this good could get a life outside that crap Money – Greedy circuit… Read more »
It’s really a shame that the one good series Amazon has put up is cancelled. At least they could have given their audience a proper ending. Hopefully the new head won’t last long. She stArted off with a horrible decision.
Oh no!! So sad!
The show was such a fresh breath!
Just watching it again for the 3:rd time…and Im an 53 year male in Sweden!!
Just, love it!
Loved Mozart in the jungle and can’t believe amazon would cancel this brilliant series. Hope there’s a change of heart or it gets taken up by Netflix!
I just finished Season 4 and I want more of Mozart in the Jungle!!
So do I! I am really bad series watcher but this is fabulous and I would love to watch more!
This show is unlike most. So refreshing to see a series lacking violence and instead showcasing music, the arts, and quirky but fun personalities.
