Why Did It End? This series spent three weeks in the Netflix Top 10, with two of those in the Top 5. But it joins a list of other shows like Warrior Nun, The Imperfects, and The Midnight Club that also had three-week runs in the charts but ended up cancelled. Those did not satisfy the “completion rate” that Netflix execs are looking for and the shows were quickly discarded. Cabinet of Curiosities did not receive an official cancellation announcement, but apparently the streamer is considering it a “limited run” series with no plans of continuing to a second season. It could potentially move to another venue at some point, but Netflix likely holds the rights to the property for at least two years.
