Netflix Cancels ‘Friends From College’ After Two Seasons

Well, it looks like the gang will not be back for round three. Hot on the heels of the cancellations for The Punisher and Jessica Jones, Netflix has decided to cancel Friends From College after two seasons on the streaming service. Series co-creator Nicholas Stoller announced the news on Twitter.

While season one wasn’t met with the best critical reviews and currently holds a 24% on Rotten Tomatoes, season two of the series featured vast improvements both in story-telling and likability. Not to mention, it left on a semi-cliffhanger. The half-hour comedy, which followed the messy and intertwined lives of a group of college friends, told stories that were relatable alongside some sharp and witty humor. It also had fantastic performances and great ensemble chemistry from stars Keegan-Michael Key, Cobie Smulders, Fred Savage, Annie Parisse, Nat Faxon, Jae Suh Park and Billy Eichner.

Despite not being the most popular series on the platform, fans really came out on social media to express their distaste with the decision.
