It’s no secret that streaming platforms are the toughest of environments. Yes, there are the mega-hits like House of the Dragon and The Bear, but beneath them are a whole microcosm of shows that are struggling to survive, or at least to hit the viewing figures that execs deem worthy of another season.
Even if the signs are good - like Prime Video’s My Lady Jane, launched in June to much fanfare - that doesn’t necessarily save them from the executioner’s axe (it was cancelled earlier this month).
