Netflix cancels 1899, which starred Emily Beecham, Aneurin Barnard, and Andreas Pietschmann, after one season.

Unfortunately, it would seem as though the numbers were not enough to break even when compared to the show's expensive cost - 1899 employed the use of virtual production techniques which does not come cheap; production was done on a newly-built stage at Babelsberg Studios in Germany which is currently Europe's largest. 1899 was met with rave critical and audience reception and was perceived as a worthy successor to Dark, Friese and Odar's first project from their Netflix deal. While the creators did not reveal the decision behind the show's cancelation, the next sentence seems to suggest that the decision was solely Netflix's: “We would have loved to finish this incredible journey with a 2nd and 3rd season as we did with Dark. But we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts that you were a part of this wonderful adventure. It follows the crew and passengers aboard a steamship named Kerberos and the mysterious events that unravel on deck as they embark on a voyage from Europe to New York.

1899 has been cancelled by Netflix after only one season, but why was 1899 cancelled – and what are the chances of season 2 or a spinoff?

In April 2018, Netflix's vice president at the time, Cindy Holland, explained to [Radio Times](http://sense8/) that the "audience size and budget" is what led to that show's demise, but "fan love" led to them commissioning one more special to tie everything together. [Wednesday's record-breaking figures](https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/ustv/a42106085/netflix-wednesday-ratings-viewers/), they were still better than you might expect given the show's demise. Still vague, we know, but we wouldn't expect more story details to emerge just yet, not so soon after the cancellation. You're just trying to be flexible, to really allow the process to surprise you while you’re going through it, but still kind of knowing where you’re sailing to." [Especially after that final scene...](https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/a41991710/1899-ending-explained-netflix/) [NetflixLife.com](https://netflixlife.com/2022/11/16/is-1899-season-2-happening-release-updates/)), which was substantially more than other Netflix trailers around that same period. We want to know where we are going." Even when a show like 1899 does perform decently enough, other considerations like cost need to be weighed up too, and it looks like the odds weren't in their favour. You read a code and you expect something and you feel safe in that. By the end of that first week, Netflix revealed that 1899 had reached [87.9 million hours viewed](https://deadline.com/2022/11/wednesday-breaks-record-most-hours-viewed-netflix-ratings-1235184006/) total (via [Deadline](https://deadline.com/2022/11/wednesday-breaks-record-most-hours-viewed-netflix-ratings-1235184006/)). We would have loved to finish this incredible journey with a 2nd and 3rd season as we did with Dark. The original plan was to create three seasons for this globe-spanning saga, but the story's now been sunk just one season in.

Happy New Year! Netflix has cancelled another series. This time around it's 1899, the long-anticipated new series from the creators of Dark, where Dark is ...

But it really has gotten to the point where instead of watching a show at release, you want to wait 4-6 months to see if Netflix is actually going to renew it, and then consider watching it. If not, you get The Midnight Club or Archive 81 or now, 1899. I wonder if in 2022, Dark season 1 would have performed well enough to be renewed by Netflix’s current standards, or in this new era they might have killed one of the best sci-fi series ever before it fully unfolded. If you’re lucky, you get a show that limps along to its finish line like Locke and Key or The Umbrella Academy. I don’t need to go through the grand list of shows Netflix has killed the past few years for the millionth of time. 1899, by contrast, was another wild experiment, this time focused on the warped reality of a group of strangers trapped on a ship where mysterious things happen and people keep dying.

Netflix's 1899, the new historical mystery thriller from Dark creators Baran bo Odar and Jantje Friese, has been canceled after season 1.

But we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts that you were a part of this wonderful adventure. “We would have loved to finish this incredible journey with a 2nd and 3rd season as we did with Dark. “With a heavy heart we have to tell you that 1899 will not be renewed,” Odar and Friese said.
