Variety reports that Netflix has canceled the single-camera workplace comedy after just 10 episodes. The series featured an ensemble cast led by Randall Park and Melissa Fumero but this still wasn’t enough. We shouldn’t feel surprised that Netflix canceled “Blockbuster”. All jokes aside, the streamer has been on a cost-cutting spree lately, putting even popular shows on the chopping block. Thus, Blockbuster, a show that never really cracked the platform’s weekly Top 10, was on its way out as soon as it premiered. Maybe, just maybe, Blockbuster stood a chance had Netflix not suffered a significant loss earlier this year. Either way, as a critical dud that failed to land an audience, Blockbuster (the show) will likely not be missed. If it’s any consolation, the real-life Blockbuster store that served as the inspiration for the show is still operational. In other news, Randall Park is expected to continue working for both the DC Universe and the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the foreseeable future. Park, who plays FBI agent, Jimmy Woo, is a fan-favorite character who will appear in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania when it premieres on February 17. Meanwhile, his DCU character, Stephen Shin, will likely appear in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom when it premieres next Christmas.
