    1. I know we like to joke about Stranger Things, but Euphoria’s run is going to be crazy long as well 😭

      Ah, Designated Survivor… I’m easily entertained so I loved that show lol

      Stranger Things was once an awesome, mostly self-contained original that helped boost Netflix’s profile during a time where the streamer was putting out a lot of awesome stuff (including the best season of Black Mirror, season 3).

      Now, it’s ballooned far bigger than it ever should have in an attempt to be a version of the MCU and it just sucks.

      This slow rollout has been agonizing and I frankly wonder if anyone really, truly cares about the conclusion as much as they do tying up a loose end on a show they once found a lot of joy in.

      When an episode is nearly two hours long, but barely anything happens for an entire season I think you’ve completely lost the plot

      Probably not major enough to make this list, but shout out The Residence which is an amazing show. Binged it in I think July, was excited for more, then found out it was cancelled.

      Netflix really does not like good programming.

      This is us is wild because they had sooo many seasons and it feels Ike it ended a really long time ago lol there is even a nostalgia podcast about it lol

      Omg Westworld feels forever ago too and it’s not even streaming anymore 😫

      5 seasons in 10 years, including delays for the pandemic and union strikes. I get it, 2016 feels like ancient history, but I am a bit amused at the way people talk about this show these days

    7. Most shows do 4 or 5 seasons total, with one season every year. So it makes sense that anything that started in 2016 would be over.

      People think stranger things is a dinosaur. Try making this list for “law and order special victims unit” longest running primetime drama and it’s currently in it’s 27th season. 

    9. Wasn’t Chilling Adventures of Sabrina cancelled (not literally from platforms I think but I mean that it wasn’t renewed)? I don’t think it should really count tbh.

    10. RIVERDALE???? omfg that show lived a thousand lives so for it to start and end during ST’s run is craaaaazy
