Because Disney are starting their own streaming services. They don't want to work with Netflix anymore.

WB own DC and the CW.

Runaways didn't flop

Also I haven't watched Iron Fist but surely it's better than some of the CW shows

Started slow but it was surprisingly better than I thought it would be. I'd put it in the Jessica Jones category, it's a quality watch, but not for everyone.

You rely on RT yet according to Rotten Tomatoes, shows like Iron Fist, Defenders, and Inhumans have lower any of the DC shows especially on CW

iron fist is as good as most dc shows in cw

those dc shows are just cheaper to make, get on cable (advertising) and appeal to a large number of people (a.k.a. soap operas disguised as superhero shows).

I'm guessing Disney aren't going to give Netflix anymore shows. But they'll let them keep renewing seasons of the stuff they have already until Netflix decide they're done.

It does make me wonder what's in store for the long term for these characters though. Doesn't look like they'll ever be used for the cinematic MCU.

AT&T Time Warner is pretty big in the TV world and since the DCEU is failing, they have to keep something DC alive. Game of Thrones is also ending next year, so the next best thing after GoT spinoffs is DC stuff.

Disney doesn't need the shows at all.

in the same sense that they were all supposed to be a one-and-done thing. None of these shows were guaranteed a season 2 at first.

Iron fist gets all this hate (which it deserves) and I hate to mention it existed but inhumans was a thing. And while cw shows are garbage, none of them are as offensively awful as inhumans was. I can't believe they actually aired that, they should have been way too ashamed and buried it like they buried the agents of shield spinoff with hunter and mockingbird.

Everything that hasn't been announced. It's not so much that they've been canceled, its that they're not making any new shows on Netflix.

So if it hasn't been announced and is in production its effectively canceled.

But if they never tried for a second season you can't say it was cancelled. It works both ways.

Would be doing better if DC wasnt dicking CW with character embargos because they wanted to do their own streaming service.

CW might be doing better than Marvel in the TV show, but it is despite of DC sabotaging CW every chance they get.

The show made Niko bisexual so she would get into a relationship with Karolina. In the comics, Karolina thinks Niko is bisexual because she said she was "through with men" after some shit went down with a boyfriend. When she tries to kiss Niko, Niko is really surprised and turns her down because she's straight.

Gert was also a feminist in the comic, but it was turned up to eleven in the show. And Molly Hayes became Molly Hernandez. Which I think is a bit silly, not because they changed her race, but because they changed her name.

Again that's not "more liberal" that's proving the source material and the new show are both liberal.

So it's less subtle more obvous? Thats due to TV shows not being known for subtlety. Really sounds like you are complaining about nothing, just nitpicking for attention.

Iron Fist season 2 was alright.

Season 1 wasn't as bad as everyone said imo. Mediocre for sure, but I think it was watchable at least. That's more than you can say for Arrow and Flash's worst seasons. Arrow seasons 3-4 and Flash seasons 3-4 were fucking abysmal. Season 5 of Flash looks promising
