Following the cancelation of Shadow and Bone

Fans Left Disheartened Following &#8216;Six of Crows&#8217; Scrapping as “Disappointed” &#8216;Shadow and Bone&#8217; Author Speaks Her Heart on Cancellation

The conclusion of the fantasy saga Game of Thrones marked the end of an era in
fantasy television. This prompted many networks, including Netflix, to jump into
the race to compete for new and captivating fantasy narratives. From The Witcher
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-witcher/]to The Umbrella Academy, the
streaming giant has churned out many compelling shows to fill this void.
However, the show that most closely mirrored the essence of Game of Thrones was
Shadow and Bone. 

After delivering two seasons of captivating storytelling, the show has
officially concluded its run on Netflix. This decision came in light of the
post-strikes impact, which led the OTT platform to hammer down on five series.
This included the Eric Heisserer-developed series, and its anticipated spin-off,
Six of Crows. Recently, Leigh Bardugo, the author of Grishaverse novels that
birthed the Netflix series, shared her thoughts about the cancellation of the
show.

Bardugo took to her Instagram handle and confirmed that the American fantasy
streaming television series will not be coming back to the small screens for a
third season. She also closed the door on any hopes of a series spinoff,
confirming that its possibility is completely off the table. Bardugo wrote, “I’m
heartbroken and deeply disappointed”, but she was also proud of the incredible
series that her brainchild inspired.

The news of the show’s cancellation did not only disappoint Bardugo but stirred
a wave of disappointment among fans. 


FANS STILL CARRYING HOPE FOR THE SPINOFF SIX OF CROWS

Netflix and the author herself have both confirmed the cancellation of Shadow
and Bone and its spin-off. However, fans still seem to be unwilling to let go of
their hope, especially for Six of Crows. The fact that the script and cast of
Six of Crows were already in place made the unexpected cancellation even harder
for fans to digest. Apart from disappointment, fans also expressed their
frustration about the repeated cancellation of their favorite shows by Netflix.

A fan also suggested that the Six of Crows fandom should come together to get
the spin-off made by another company, other than Netflix. The fact that the
actor will not be able to play their characters and finish what they started
deeply disappointed fans.

Some fans, nevertheless, chose to be “delusional” about Six of Crows, despite
the announcement of the cancelations.

The live-action adaptation of Six of Crows may be out of consideration for
Netflix, but the streaming giant has other remarkable shows to offer that are
gaining significant traction. One of the most anticipated live-action
adaptations by Netflix is Yu Yu Hakusho, which will be live on the platform on
December 14. Though it may not entirely bridge the gap for disappointed Shadow
and Bone fans, given the highly positive response from fans to its trailer

the show is likely to become the next big thing on Netflix after One Piece.
