Resident Evil Netflix Collection Canceled After a Single Season Amid Sliding Viewership

Have you been watching Netflix’s new Resident Evil collection? No? Well, apparently you’re not alone, because the streaming service is dumping the show after solely a single season. The debut episode of the Resident Evil collection racked up round 73 million hours seen, which sounds okay in isolation, however is effectively beneath the actually massive hits on Netflix (the season 5 premiere of Stranger Things delivered 287 million hours seen). Worse, the show’s recognition didn’t develop in a optimistic path, dropping out of Netflix’s prime 10 rating after solely three weeks.

It’s maybe not stunning, because the Resident Evil collection wasn’t a lot of a success with critics (53 on Metacritic) or followers (1.5 person rating on Metacritic). Really, the one individuals who appeared significantly impressed by the Resident Evil collection have been individuals creating memes from a few of its weirder moments. Personally, I gave it a shot, however couldn’t be bothered to look at greater than an episode, because it didn’t really feel very like Resident Evil more often than not, and when it did, it was sort of embarrassing. But hey, it’s a streaming show, so it is going to all the time be there to look at if you need! Here’s the collection’ official description…

“The Netflix series will tell its new story across two timelines. In the first, 14-year-old sisters Jade and Billie Wesker are moved to New Raccoon City. A manufactured, corporate town, forced on them right as adolescence is in full swing. But the more time they spend there, the more they come to realize that the town is more than it seems and their father may be concealing dark secrets. Secrets that could destroy the world. The second, more than a decade into the future sees less than 15 million people left on Earth. And more than 6 billion monsters — people and animals infected with the T-virus. Jade, now 30, struggles to survive in this new world, while the secrets from her past — about her sister, her father and herself — continue to haunt her.”

Anybody really benefit from the Resident Evil Netflix show? Or will its demise be going unmourned?
