Honestly, in most cases, studios should just guarantee 3 seasons because that’s how long it takes to really find if a show will actually get any sort of following.

To be honest, I feel like streamers keep trying to gun for a The Office or Last Airbender level hit, but don’t realize that those shows wouldn’t have survived today under the current metric by which they evaluate a show’s success. They ignore the whole point of streaming: a show should have more time to find success - potential fans will get to it when they get to it.
