Netflix cancels The Imperfects after one season

The Imperfects, created by Dennis Heaton and Shelley Eriksen, landed on Netflix on 8 September. And just after two months, Netflix canceled the series. There is no season 2 coming for the supernatural coming-of-age Sci-Fi series.

The story of three teenagers who got monstrous side effects after a science experiment and teamed up to find the responsible scientist and a possible cure. The series failed to attract an audience, leading Netflix to cancel it after just one season. The same production company that made Wu Assassins, The I-Land, and The Order developed the series. Netflix also cancelled The Order after two seasons.

Production Status: Cancelled

Netflix cancelled two debut shows, The Imperfects and Partner Track, together on 8 November 2022. None of them is getting the second season. Netflix considers multiple factors to decide whether to renew or cancel a show after a certain season. Most important among them is the number of people who finished the show. 

Ratings

On the other hand, the audience rated the show as mediocre. The audience rated 79% on RottenTomatoes and 6.1/10 on IMDB. However, the number of ratings and reviews given is very low. Only around 1.5k reviews are given on IMDB.

Performance

The Imperfects collected 24 million watch hours in the first week of release. In the next week, the show witnessed a 45% rise and scored 35 million watch hours. From the third week, the fall of the show began with a 64% drop and the show merely gained 12 million watch hours. 

Another reason for the show’s failure is its terrible marketing. The marketing for The Imperfects was one of the worst out of all shows and debuted in 2022. The production house released very few chunks of information over time. And the worst thing was the trailer and release date announcement. The release date was announced just a week before the show was due to land on Netflix.

We have seen the trio struggling for the cure. They eventually find one. Juan and Abbi decide to take it while Tilda opts not to take it. All three felt disappointed with the results, as they were only temporary. The biggest problem they faced was the virus spreading across the entire town, causing chaos and destruction. The story could move forward if the show gets renewed. 

Iñaki Godoy, who played Jaun Ruiz in The Imperfects, is returning to Netflix’s One Piece in 2023.
