What do you think? Did you want to see a third season of Shadow and Bone on Netflix? Are you disappointed by the show’s cancellation?
In the past 2 weeks I was thinking about getting Netflix on my own. Up until now I have watched on a family account.
The cancellation of Shadow and Bones makes my decision easy – I will not get Netflix. It has a hang of always cancelling the shows I love or butchering them (like the Witcher). The only other show I would love to see is Snowpiercer, but I will not hang onto Netflix for just one show.
Bye-bye Netflix, it was nice for a while, but it is over.
