  • The explosion of content from Netflix, Disney+ and other streamers has resulted in more TV shows than any human can possibly watch. And while the glut of content created something for everyone, the era of peak TV is over,

The article from MSN discusses the phenomenon of "cancel culture" within the television industry, particularly focusing on the trend of streaming services canceling shows after just one season. This practice has become increasingly common, with shows like "The Society" on Netflix, "High Fidelity" on Hulu, and "The Great" on Hulu being abruptly ended, often leaving fans and creators disappointed.
