Space Force is one of Netflix’s biggest comedy projects to date that stars Steve Carrell from the office. Despite the reduction in major costs, it is not enough to justify that the show is coming back for future episodes with the series now officially canceled in April 2022.
This article was published for the first time on February 21 and was updated over time to reflect new information. It was updated for the last time in April 2022.
Netflix gave Space Force a season 2 several months after its creation. The first season was published in May 2020, but a renewal only arrived in November 2020. Season 2 was released on Netflix in the world on February 18, 2022.
Has Netflix Renewed Space Force for season 3?
Official Netflix renewal status: officially canceled on April 29, 2022
At the end of April 2022, there was still no decision on the future of the spatial force in Netflix on April 28 according to the deadline. In an interview with the head of the Netflix comedy, Tracey Pakosta. In the interview, he said:
“She [Pakosta] also admitted that she had not made decisions on the spatial force of Steve Carrell or that the remake of Arnett de Murderville.”This was quickly updated a day later on Friday April 29 with the news that Space Force was canceled and would not return for a season 3.
It was canceled even with the main cost reductions that the show had. As you may know, season 2 moved its production to Vancouver in Los Angeles to save on costs and saw a reshuffle in the writer’s room. He also saw his number of episodes reduced from 10 to 7.
The lower budget could suggest that season 1 did not quite meet expectations but rather than letting the series go, it gave it another chance. Unless the show can make the figures (more about it in a second), it is unlikely that we will see a third entry.A positive point for the future of the series is that the revision consensus for the second season seems to be much more favorable.
We must also note that two clips of Space Force Season 2 have become incredibly viral on Tiktok. We refer to the “Fuck Microsoft” moment when John Malkovich expresses his disappointment that Microsoft has chosen a moment that is quite annoying to make an automatic update.Three of the most viral clips of this incident have raised more than 40 million views.
How well did Space Force season 2 perform on Netflix?
As we said above, what the renewal of the third season will come down to viewers, and on the basis of the available data, it is not very well.As a reference, season 1 managed to be monitored by 40 million subscribers during its first month, but unfortunately, we will not have a comparable figure for this season. Indeed, Netflix no longer provides figures on the number of subscribers.
Instead, we can examine the 10 best data from Netflix which point to the program which cannot bring together the support it would need for a third season.
The show was eligible to be included in the 10 best records between February 14 and February 20 (it was added to Netflix with two remaining days) but failed to light up on 11.04 million Hours views which was position number 10 of this week.
During his first full week, he climbed to post 8 with a disappointing 12.32 million hours visualized. He then abandoned the world top 10 shortly after and has not returned since.
Thanks to the 10 best data provided by FlixPatrol, we know that the series has failed to start in the world. In the United States, the series entered the TV top 10 at number 5 for its first and second day on the service. He was beaten by Inventing Anna, Love is Blind, Sweet Magnolias and The Cuphead Show!.The show left the Netflix US in ranking 10 of the top 10 on February 25 and TV 10 of the TV on March 1. The show also does not appear in a handful of other regions.
Below, you can see which countries have seen the show survive the longest in the top 10. It is naturally popular in regions such as the United States and Canada, but also in Australia, in some countries of Eastern Europe and the Nordic regions.
What we expected from Space Force Season 3
At the end of season 2, we find most of the characters in the same position as in the second season.Most of the characters have chosen to stay in Space Force having now received their salary increases and that the future of the branch of the secure army.Of course, season 2 ends on a cliffhanger in the form of a large asteroid rushing towards the ground (yes, the exact intrigue not to look). The crew discovers all asteroid thanks to the Hawaiin telescope online.
Once astronauts, scientists and generals have all spotted the next asteroid and reconcile with their imminent destiny, they burst into song (singing Kokomo by the Beach Boys) which is a return to season 1.We will keep this post up to date in next month because we are waiting for vision statistics for the new season and can predict more precisely if it will return for a third season.
