Netflix strategy seems to be hook you with a big budget new show, then slash the budget for season 2 and see if it still sticks(interestingly that didn't seem to be the case with Lost in Space, and Dark Crystal was just outright cancelled).
This was very evident with Altered Carbon as well. First season felt like it had a budget on par with the best blockbusters. Second season had the budget of some cut rate 90s SciFi show on a third tier cable network.
Dark Crystal was so good, too. It's a shame, but that format and that concept is always chasing a small audience. I'm sad we won't get a season 2, though.
Also watching a lot more Amazon+HBO these days.
