I think three seasons is enough time to tell a great story - if the writers PLAN for it. I really think networks should give showrunners plenty of notice of planned cancellation, so they can get at least the big things wrapped up.

Yes I agree! If some shows prove to be popular and the creators want to expand more on it then negotiations can begin. IMO Netflix needs to let the creators know that Netflix wants to only give a show 3 seasons so the creators and viewers don't get screwed over.

Yes, that's my issue. If they know they're getting three seasons, or if they do a contained storyline each season, that's great. But I don't think Netflix is any worse than any other network on this front, seriously.

Ugh, Selfie was so goddamn perfect. :(

I think it's more frustrating with Netflix, at least from the outside, because the business model is different, because there's less transparency, and because there's no real scarcity in the scheduling. With traditional networks, they publicize their ratings so it's easier to know what's struggling and what's not. Their business model is tied directly to viewership, whereas Netflix is subscription based so it's a lot harder to understand why it's financially necessary to cancel things. And with traditional networks, there's a fundamentally limited amount of broadcasting time where they can have shows on the air, so there's an obvious reason why networks need to cancel shows - whereas Netlix doesn't need to get rid of ODAAT to make space on the servers for whatever other new show.
