Netflix has cancelled its big supernatural series Dead Boys Detective after only one season, which is a shame because the show was incredibly funny!
The series received excellent reviews, with a 92% score on Rotten Tomatoes, and viewers who tuned in seemed to enjoy it.
The series is based on characters created for DC by Famous people AND Matt Wagnerand the show was part of The Sandman universe, as the Dead Boy Detectives were first introduced in an issue of The Sandman comic book.
Sometimes it’s hard to like Netflix because they make stupid, uninformed decisions when they cancel good shows and continue making bad ones.
