There is a lot that could go wrong if she did your idea too.

Staying with the person you had been with for days doesn't seem like a bad decision to me especially considering the situation she was in. It doesn't seem like she was in actual danger asuch as he was just being used to keep her away. She was afraid for her boss, not for herself as much.

That doesn't mean it was successful. It's viewership and reportedly it's completion rate wasn't that good compared to 0ther expensive shows they produce. So it doesn't seem like it was successful.

This really comes down to you not really having the information to say if something was truly successful or not. If any of these shows were actually successful what does Netflix gain by cancelling them? Occam's razor my guy.

This post is built on a misinterpretation of what was said. The entire quote is relating viewing metrics to budgets. So unless you are doing the same it's pointless. A show could have a huge audience but if it costs aot than the bar for renewal will naturally be higher.

A show like 1899 by all reports was not cheap, and relative to other shows the viewing numbers weren't that impressive.

Maybe but for me the uniqueness of the animation, how tight it is, the voice acting and the song are what makes it great.

I like the Jim Carrey version but is over 3 times as long not because it needs to be but because theatrical movies needed to be so long.
