Shadow and Bone’scancelation is specially difficult because of the stories that were come . As Tan verbalize at SDCC , Six of Crowsis one of the good Leigh Bardugo books , yet Netflix did n’t give it a chanceto enjoy the spotlight . There ’s no doubt that audience would have determine it either . The show ’s cancelation has only show how consecrate the fans are .
Shadow & Bone’s Fan Support Proves The Netflix Adaptation Was On the Right Path
Shadow & Bone’s Viewership Could Have Soared
Now that audience are trying urgently to reviveShadow and Bone , it is clear-cut thatNetflix made the wrong move when it cancel the show . Often , telly adaptations do n’t have the same consecrate fan home thatShadow and Bonedoes . Audiences witness major fault in how their favorite stories are portrayed . In particular , Netflix suffer from this trouble . Although viewers be intimate the book - to - TV adaptationThe Witcherwhen it first premier , it has since faced intense backlash . Yet , four seasons in , and Netflix still has n’t canceled the show . That pray the motion : why offset a show that citizenry have intercourse ?
Six of Crowsis so beloved that the spinoff surely could have enjoyed increased viewership .
If Netflix had letShadow and Boneseason 3 or theSix of Crowsspinoffhappen , I trust it would have made up for whatever Netflix thought the serial was lack . Six of Crowsis so beloved that the spinoff certainly could have savour increased viewership . Furthermore , withShadow and Bonelikely transitioning into Leigh Bardugo’sKing of Scarsduology , this also could have helped the show . In reality , theShadow and Bonebook series is more of a starting pointto get to the better Grishaverse stories . Unfortunately , now those stories are n’t being give the chance to materialize .
Shadow & Bone’s Scrapped Six Of Crows Spinoff Still Hurts, Too
Six Of Crows Deserves An On-Screen Adaptation
In realness , Six of Crows’cancelation is what really hurts the most . Though I enjoyedShadow and Bone , Six of Crowsis my honest favorite . Kaz and the otherSix of Crowscharactersbring an edgy ambiance that is n’t present in the other Grishaverse novels . The relationships between characters are both heartwarming and withering . Meanwhile , Six of Crow’splotlines are Bardugo ’s best . She manages to flux massive stakes with smart , twisty schemes that always have me at the bound of my seat . I really eff what Netflix commence withShadow and Bone’scast , yet we might never see those actors repeat these roles again .
In the end , I just hope thatSix of Crowscan one day get an on - blind adaptation . Shadow and Boneproved that there ’s an audience for it , so hopefully Netflix will alter its creative thinker , or another company will pick it up someday . The Crow deserve to be brought to life history , no matter what streaming service it come out on .
