Fans are surely devastated that the show won’t be getting a third season. As seen in the reaction after a mild season one. Many felt that the show was finally going in the right direction. Many felt that the second season was far better than the first had was a great improvement.

However, Netflix had to make cost-cutting in order to have a long future.

But why was it canceled?

Well, Netflix very seldomly announces reasons for its action. But we can try to understand why Space Force was the next in line not to get a new season.

Viewership (along with critical acclaim) vs. cost is a crucial element in Netflix’s pickup selections. Therefore, the rating renewal hurdle is high for a costly program like Space Force.

Raising Dion, which premiered around the same time as Space Force and scored a position or two higher on the Nielsen Originals ranking, was also recently canceled by the streaming service.

Greg Daniels will still be working with Netflix on future projects. Among his newest is the comedy show Exploding Kittens.
