It's not been a great week for fans of music-themed entertainment: two big-name shows have been cancelled by two of the best streaming services. Max has taken away the turntables from Rap Sh!t, while Apple TV Plus has dropped the curtain on Schmigadoon!.
In both cases it's not because they're bad shows, far from it. Rap Sh!t has a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes for both of its seasons, while Schmigadoon! has a near-perfect 97% – up from a still-good 89% for the first season. And while of course there's more to shows than their Rotten Tomatoes ratings, when they do score so highly from critics rather than fans – whose reviews can be inflated by review-bombing both positive and negative – it's usually a sign of something worth watching.
