Netflix If you’re a fan of the new ghost-hunting drama Lockwood and Co. on Neflix, I think it may be time to start being at least a little bit concerned about its potential season 2 renewal. For starters, no, Netflix has not announced anything official about Lockwood and Co.

yet, either cancelation or renewal for season 2. But watching the show’s performance, I’m a bit concerned. Why? Well, there’s the obvious, that we have seen Netflix cancel countless YA shows in the past, with very few running the gauntlet to survive to a second or third season.

On the surface, Lockwood and Co. is exactly the type of show that Netflix is prone to cancel, and as such it would have to perform pretty extraordinarily to get noticed. I fear it is not performing well enough.

Lockwood and Co. debuted at a decent #2 in the top 10 list, but it never reached number one and is already starting to fall fast, currently down to #5 in the US after debuting just over a week ago. Again, not bad, but probably not good enough, and it feels like it may not be getting the word of mouth recommendations it needs.

It’s now behind Wednesday, the megahit that came out in November. Lockwood and Co Netflix It’s reviewing well , but Netflix has shown they put little stock in that, so its 90% critic scores and 94% audience score probably won’t do much, even if it should help, in theory.

EA Didn’t Cancel ‘Titanfall 3,’ But ‘Titanfall Legends’ Did Have A Playable Titan I was concerned about this exact outcome when Lockwood and Co.

season 1 ended on a number of cliffhangers, as it was always meant to be a multi-season series. Here’s what we know from creator Joe Cornish speaking to Radio Times about season 2 and beyond: “Well, there are five books. Season one encompasses the first two books.

So we think there’s definitely two more seasons we’d love to make out of the remaining books. ” I did wonder why there appeared to be a story break in the middle of the season where they moved on to a new plotline, but I guess that’s why, they did two books in one go. So the ultimate plan is to adapt all five books in three seasons, but at this rate, Lockwood and Co.

would be extremely lucky to make it to season 2. And season 3 would be something of a miracle. I may be wrong, as of course I do not have access to backend Netflix data and budget spreadsheets and all that, but you see this kind of thing happen a dozen times with shows exactly like this, and you start to pick up on the clues.

My advice for Lockwood and Co. fans? If you liked the show, make sure you finish the entire thing. If you did that, watch it again.

It’s going to need the help to see season 2, at this rate. Follow me on Twitter , YouTube , Facebook and Instagram . Subscribe to my free weekly content round-up newsletter, God Rolls .
