Deadline reports that Netflix has canceled the teen fantasy series Lockwood & Company after its first season. The decision centered on a clear reality in streaming today: the show did not attract a broad enough audience across major markets in Canada and the United States. The production team took a moment to thank the entire cast and crew, describing the experience of bringing the project to life as a milestone in many careers.
Lockwood & Company is an adaptation of Jonathan Stroud’s acclaimed teen fantasy series bearing the same name. The story follows a trio of young Londoners who take on dangerous duties in a city where ghosts haunt the streets after dark. Within the city’s ghost-hunting ecosystem, an independent agency named Lockwood & Company stands out, managed by three young operatives: Anthony Lockwood, George Karim, and Lucy Carlyle. Together, they face peril, uncover clues, and work to thwart supernatural threats while navigating the pressures of youth, loyalty, and ambition. The central arc invites viewers into a mystery with implications that could echo beyond the immediate case files and perhaps alter the course of world history as the characters know it.
For enthusiasts seeking more insights, there are ongoing series reviews that explore how Lockwood & Company translates on screen, how the cast captures the spirit of Stroud’s world, and how the story’s themes resonate with contemporary audiences in North America.
Earlier in April, Netflix also announced the end of the erotic drama Sex / Life after two seasons, continuing the platform’s pattern of balancing new launches with the reality of viewership across its global audience.
