Not aided by an aversion to commitment. Netflix especially loves to cancel shows after one or two seasons... despite a decade of The Office being their bread and butter. They should be promising creators a budget directly correlated with some desirable metric. Your thing is what five million subscribers are obviously sticking around for? Here's half the budget of last year, when it was ten. You can decide whether that's enough to do another season. Oh it was? And it worked? And now it's twenty million? Great, here's a shitload of money, keep going.
