The workplace comedy Blockbuster has been canceled at Netflix after just one season. The 10-episode series launched its one and only season on November 3. The show was a single-camera workplace comedy about the employees of the last Blockbuster Video in the world.

The series starred Randall Park, Melissa Fumero, Olga Merediz, Tyler Alvarez, Madeleine Arthur, JB Smoove, Kamaia Fairburn, Leonard Robinson, and Keegan Connor Tracy. Vanessa Ramos created the series and served as executive producer. David Caspe and Jackie Clarke also served as writers and executive producers. John Davis and John Fox executive produced via Davis Entertainment. Universal Television was the studio.

The cancellation of the series doesn’t come as a huge surprise, as the ratings from both fans and critics weren’t great. The show never did broach the top 10 in the US, although it did appear in the top 10 in Australia and Canada.

It’s a bummer that some shows don’t get to hit their strides, but it doesn’t sound like this one had a huge fanbase. Did you watch Blockbuster? Are you bummed about its cancelation?
