Netflix hasn't been messing around with its cancellations lately: Altered carbon is the last show showing the exit, which is canceled after two seasons.
"The decision by Netflix not to play any more seasons was made in April and is not related to COVID, but is based on the standard process of checking the number of viewers compared to the cost renewal of the streamer," reported Deadline on Wednesday.
Netflix didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
The news follows the cancellations of teen series The Society and I Am Not Okay With This, shows that were previously renewed before Netflix canceled them due to COVID-related reasons.
Altered Carbon played two different lead roles as Takeshi Kovacs, a retired soldier - Joel Kinnaman in season one and Anthony Mackie in season two. In a future where consciousness can be transferred to different bodies, the ambitious cyberpunk series explored technology, AI and cyberspace and spawned the anime film Altered Carbon: Resleeved.
Fans of the show are pretty upset.
"That's why I have trouble committing to anything Netflix does. Lord, help me if I need more than a few episodes to commit ..." one tweeted.

"The first season was good. The second was a disappointment," tweeted another.
