Description: Spanning space and time, Night Sky follows Irene (Spacek) and Franklin York (Simmons), a couple who, years ago, discovered a chamber buried in their backyard which inexplicably leads to a strange, deserted planet. They’ve carefully guarded their secret ever since, but when an enigmatic young man (Chai Hansen, The Newsreader) enters their lives, the Yorks’ quiet existence is quickly upended…and the mystifying chamber they thought they knew so well turns out to be much more than they could ever have imagined.

Why Was It Cancelled? This show received little in the way of promotion but still managed to place in the Nielsen Streaming Top 10 for originals for three weeks in a row (though in the lower rungs). Apparently the show did not draw enough in the way of new subscriptions, and it was rather expensive to produce, so Amazon decided to cancel it after one season. More on that at at this link.
