The Fall of Gaiman Begins: Deadboy Detectives is Dead
Neil Gaiman’s second series at Netflix has been axed. For some mysterious reason…
“The first season, which dropped on April 25, will now be the final season for the show, which was originally set up at Max.
The news is not entirely surprisng…”
Yeah, no kidding.
“Dead Boy Detective spent only three weeks in Netflix’s Top 10 for English-language series, peaking at #2 in Week 1 behind phenom Baby Reindeer.
Based on the comics of the same name by Neil Gaiman and part of The Sandman Universe, Dead Boy Detectives followed Edwin Payne (George Rexstrew) and Charles Rowland (Jayden Revri), “the brains” and “the brawn” behind the Dead Boy Detectives agency. Teenagers born decades apart who find each other only in death, Edwin and Charles are best friends and ghosts… who solve mysteries.”
It’s no mystery why this one has been canned. Sure the numbers weren’t great but given Netlfix’s business model it was a shoo-in for a second season, maybe not a third but easily a second.
#Gaimangate has begun gathering its roll of the slain. This is a bad omen for Good Omens.
