Netflix cancels beloved coming-of-age comedy series Everything Now, despite season 2 renewal

Billed as the perfect new show for fans of Heartstopper and Sex Education, Netflix’s teen drama Everything Now has a respectable 82% score from critics on Rotten Tomatoes and 90% from viewers – but despite reports that a writer’s room was already in place for season two, the show has been cancelled by Netflix.

The news came in an interview with one of the show’s stars, Dylan Brady, on FilmUpdates. According to Brady, the show didn’t do the numbers Netflix was hoping for. “We had some great ideas,” Brady said. “But we are at the mercy of the algorithm, I’m afraid.”
