New Amsterdam
Status: Canceled
Network: NBC
Est. Cost: $2 million per episode*
NBC’s New Amsterdam is a medical drama. It’s based on Eric Manheimer’s book Twelve Patients: Life and Death at Bellevue Hospital. Fans enjoy the medical drama, and NBC was so delighted by the viewership and ratings that it renewed it for not one, but two more seasons. There will be many more cases for the New Amsterdam team to solve, but there is a catch. There will be a fifth season, but it will be the final one for the show. Fans who were confident that this would be around for a long time will be disappointed.
Derry Girls
Status: Canceled
Network: Channel 4
Est. Cost: $500,000-$2 million per episode*
Derry Girls, a British sitcom set in Northern Ireland in the 1990s, takes an unflinching look at The Troubles and its impact on youngsters. The coming-of-age comedy premiered on January 4, 2018, and has since grown in popularity, with one outlet calling its success as “no flash in the pan.” Despite its success, Derry Girls demonstrates that the best things in life are not always transient. In 2022, the show concluded after three seasons and one 45-minute special. Fans were devastated, but the incident will not be forgotten.
