The last week has been pretty rough for Netflix in terms of news; the big streamer has had some high profile cancellations and reports of layoffs. If you’re a fan of Space Force, their sci-fi military comedy series, bad news: it too has been canceled.
Created by Greg Daniels of The Office and Parks & Recreation fame, the series starred Steve Carrell as a military general tasked with creating the titular space force as the next branch of the US Armed Forces. Rather clearly influenced by the Trump administration’s attempt to make space guardians, the comedy was rather hit and miss across its two seasons. Carrell and the rest of the cast, featuring Ben Schwartz, Tawny Newsome, and John Malkovich, were the show’s high points (as they well should be), but they were in a show that wasn’t making the best use of their talents.
