Since it cancelled The Expanse (which was later saved by Amazon), it was in need of another series set in space. Enter the Nightflyers TV show. Based on a novella and short stories collection from Game of Thrones‘ George R. R. Martin, does this new series have what it takes to score in the Nielsen ratings race? Will Nightflyers be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
