Even though Netflix cut its losses, if there were any, by canceling the sci-fi series The Boroughs, the streamer seems to be going all in on another big-budget project. The project in question returned with a highly anticipated second season this week, following a debut season that divided audiences and critics in 2024. Instead of making fans wait another two years between seasons, Netflix produced the second and third installments of the show back-to-back. What this probably means is that the show's next installment will debut later this year. This is also a strategy that streamers employ when they want to wrap things up quickly, or when they don't want the cast to age too rapidly between installments. Alternatively, they might greenlight a feature-length climactic chapter to tie up the loose ends. All of this is to say that The Boroughs being canceled after a single well-reviewed and highly-watched season is irregular.
