Low ratings tend to be one of the reasons that TV shows are canceled after only one season or a few seasons, such as Cowboy Bebop (2021) or Firefly (2002-2003). Even though the original network that broadcasted the TV series announced the cancellation of the TV show, there is still a glimmer of hope that a different network might save it.

The most notable example is the sitcom Brooklyn Nine-Nine (2013 - 2021) ran on Fox from 2013 to 2018 (five seasons). Fans didn't have to wait too long before NBC announced that they picked up the TV series and ordered an additional three seasons, ending with a series finale on September 16, 2021. Besides Brooklyn Nine-Nine, there is plenty of TV series that moved networks after their home network announced their cancellation.

This wicked character wasn't put to rest, as fans started campaigning on Twitter with the hashtag "#SaveLucifer", hoping that either the network would reverse its decision or some other network would consider picking it up. Netflix saved the TV series, Lucifer, and produced a total of three additional seasons.

The Expanse aired on the Syfy network for three seasons from 2015 to 2018.

'You' (2018 - )

The psychological thriller, You, focused on Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley), a man capable of going to drastic measures to get what he wants. It's not a coincidence that Guinevere Beck (Elizabeth Lail) kept running into Joe, but rather Joe knew exactly when and where Guinevere would be at all times. He made sure no one stood in his way. The TV series You fell into the category of shows where viewers were actually cheering for the bad guy.

What might be hard to believe is that this popular Netflix TV series actually premiered on Lifetime in 2018. On Lifetime, You ran for two seasons, but it wasn't until the show moved to Netflix that it gained momentum, according to The Washington Post. Netflix renewed the psychological thriller for Season 3 and Season 4. Season 4 is set to premiere in 2022 or 2023.

'Manifest' (2018 - )

An announcement to passengers informed them that the plane was fully booked and if they would consider taking a later flight. In Manifest, these passengers included Michaela Stone (Melissa Roxburgh), Ben (Josh Dallas), and Cal (Jack Messina) who boarded Montego Air Flight 828 from Jamaica to New York. Their flight, for the most part, was smooth, and they experienced turbulence. It wasn't until they landed that they were told they were missing for 5 years.

After NBC canceled the TV series, Manifest's Season 3 finale left viewers with more questions than answers. The show often alluded to the number 828 and incorporated the number somewhere within the episodes. So it wasn't a surprise that Netflix announced on Twitter on August 28, 2021 (8/28/2021), that they picked up the Manifest and renewed it for a fourth and final season.
