Shadow and Bone, Glamorous, Agent Elvis, Captain Fall and Farzar have all been axed by Netflix.
This news was first reported by Deadline, which claimed that the overall impact of their latest seasons didn't reach expectation.
The concurrent WGA and SAG-AFTRA union strikes weren't helpful for the show's futures, either, with huge production delays on the horizon.

Premiering on the streamer this July, Glamorous was a Kim Cattrall vehicle, whose legend of the makeup world Madolyn Addison takes on a down-on-his-luck queer man named Marco Mejia (played by Miss Benny).
Agent Elvis starred Matthew McConaughey as the voice of Elvis Presley in what Digital Spy described as the next Bojack Horseman. As well as holding the fort as the King of Rock 'n' Roll, this animated version is also a spy.
Fellow comedy animation Captain Fall charted the trials and tribulations of a sea captain unwittingly working for the cartel, while sci-fi Farzar centred on Prince Fichael and his crew as they leave their domed city to battle monstrous aliens.

Addressing the cancellation of Shadow and Bone, which saw the superpowered orphan Alina Starkov attempting to put an end to The Darkling and his shadowy work, original author Leigh Bardugo admitted on Instagram that he's found the news difficult.
"I'm heartbroken and deeply disappointed, but I'm also trying to hold onto my very real gratitude. Most authors never get to see their work adapted. Many who do end up regretting the experience. I'm one of the lucky few who can look at an adaptation with pride and tremendous joy," he wrote to his fans in a statement.
Shadow and Bone seasons 1-2, Glamorous, Agent Elvis, Captain Fall and Farzar are available to stream on Netflix.
