Space Force has been cancelled by Netflix after two seasons

Netflix’s Space Force workplace sitcom, which debuted in 2020 as a fairly topical parody of the United States Space Force, has been canceled. According to Deadline, Netflix has opted to cancel the Jeff Daniels and Steve Carell-created series, most likely in response to Space Force’s less-than-stellar ratings throughout the course of its brief run.

The second season of Space Force premiered in February and followed the protagonists as they battled to deal with a change in presidential administrations. Though the cancellation of Space Force is a sore spot for Netflix, it’s likely just another cost-cutting step the streaming service thought was important to take as it continues to figure out its long-term future.
