Hollywood is Disguising the Results of Its TV Shows and Movies
TV ratings and box office reports are less meaningful than ever. What will replace them?
When Netflix canceled “Jupiter’s Legacy” just a few weeks after the debut of its first season, the company was admitting failure on one of its most ambitious projects of the past couple years.
“Jupiter’s Legacy” was the first project that came out of Millarworld, the comic book publisher Netflix acquired in 2017. Millarworld is supposed to create its own world of comic book TV shows and movies for the streaming service. Instead, it delivered a show that was panned by critics and seemingly ignored by viewers.
