Netflix is not continuing with a second season of Cut, his comedy series of Emily in Paris Creator Darren Star and modern family Veteran Jeffrey Richman.
The cancellation comes as no surprise. The series, starring Neil Patrick Harris, barely cracked Netflix’s weekly top 10 ranking, appearing only once at No. 6 after its July 29 release. (Half-hour shows are disadvantaged in Netflix’s rating system, which measures hours watched.)
speculation about it Cut would not continue at Netflix began late last year when sources said series producer MTV Entertainment Studios made an offer to find a new home. I hear the plan to move the series to a Paramount Global network, possibly Showtime, is off.
Meanwhile, Netflix is still doing business with Star as its comedy Emily in Paris continues to attract large audiences, with its current third season in the Netflix Top 10 in 93 countries. The series has already been greenlit for a fourth season in a two-season pickup.
Upcoming Netflix comedy series include That 90’s show, on my block turnoff Freeridge, unstable with Rob Lowe, Survival of the Fattest and The Vince Staples Show. The streamer was also recently purchased girl5eva whose first two seasons debuted on Peacock.
In Cut, Harris plays a gay man in his 40s navigating his single life in New York City after being unceremoniously dumped by his partner of 17 years. The cast of the series also includes Tisha Campbell, Brooks Ashmanskas, Emerson Brooks and Marcia Gay Harden.
Star and Richman executive produced with Harris and Tony Hernandez and Lilly Burns, formerly of Jax Media.
