As a seasoned gamer and avid viewer of streaming content, I must confess my dismay at the premature cancellation of yet another promising series – My Lady Jane. Having been around the block a few times, I’ve seen countless shows come and go, but this one seemed different. The chemistry between Emily Bader and Edward Bluemel was palpable, and their journey as Jane Grey and Guildford Dudley felt like a breath of fresh air in the crowded streaming landscape.
The roster of TV shows scheduled for cancellation in 2024 is expanding, with “My Lady Jane” on Prime Video being the most recent program to be terminated. This decision was made just under two months after its premiere on the streaming service. As you might expect, viewers are displeased and have responded accordingly. This is clear from the ongoing effort to preserve the magical adventure series, as a campaign has been launched for this purpose.
Enthusiasts of the series “My Lady Jane” initiated a petition several months ago, aiming to persuade Amazon Prime Video to renew it for another season. Regrettably, the over 12,000 signatures didn’t sway their decision, but the fans remain optimistic. Following the cancellation news, another petition was started, requesting other streaming platforms to take on the series instead.
Beyond the petition, supporters are also expressing their opinions in a more immediate manner by posting on social media. Just a few hours following the announcement, user @nancysdrcw shared an edited compilation of standout scenes featuring series actors Emily Bader and Edward Bluemel, accompanied by the comment:
You have this level of chemistry and still decide to cancel the show…. Prime count your days.
As a devoted fan of historical dramas, I must say that I was deeply saddened to hear about the cancellation of the genre-bending series set in 16th-century England. Having spent countless hours immersed in the rich tapestry of Tudor intrigue and romance, I had eagerly anticipated following Lady Jane Grey’s (Emily Bader) journey as she navigated her forced marriage to Lord Guildford Dudley (Edward Bluemel), only to find herself crowned queen overnight.
Just as anticipated, fans are reacting differently to the news, with some expressing their dismay vocally and consoling one another.
Instead of directly expressing their sorrow, some users opted for a playful spin, such as X User @threadofgoldenn, who turned the sad news into a chance to subtly hint at the significant plot twist in My Lady Jane. For those familiar with the story, it was quite evident.
Beyond the tweets displaying stunning scenes from the show, you’ll find numerous fans expressing their sorrow and frustration in a straightforward manner. One of the top-tier streaming platforms has drawn some criticism as well.
- WHY WOULD YOU HURT ME LIKE THIS, [Prime Video] ?!!! I was rooting for you. We were all rooting for you. – @GissaneSophia
- Congratulations, you just killed one of the best shows you had [Prime Video] – @notgllian
As a devoted fan, it’s disheartening to learn that Prime Video decided to cancel our beloved show without providing a clear explanation. Sources like Variety suggest that the series didn’t manage to capture a large audience, despite garnering a fantastic 93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. This information has only intensified our frustration, as we fans know that building a wide audience doesn’t happen instantly. We believe that ‘My Lady Jane’ deserved more time to grow its viewership and make its mark. As @threadofgoldenn aptly pointed out:
It’s still early days for the show; how could it possibly attract a wide viewership so soon? One can only imagine the impact if The Office had been cancelled after just one season. Shows often need time to gain traction and become popular, especially when they’ve already garnered significant interest as this one has. So, what’s with the sudden cancellation decision @PrimeVideo?
After the cancellation of “My Lady Jane” on Prime Video, we got a glimpse into the aspirations and visions of its executive producers regarding a potential Season 2.
It’s regrettable that some shows with great potential aren’t getting a fair shake in today’s TV environment. It might be expected that streaming services would delay canceling a new series for at least six months, especially if they’re not effectively promoting them and hoping to attract a larger audience. For now, we can only wait to find out if the “My Lady Jane” fan petition will succeed, but it appears they plan to make their opinions known in the meantime.
If you haven’t watched “My Lady Jane” on Prime Video yet, now might just be the ideal moment to make use of your subscription and give it a try. And if you find yourself seeking other entertainment alternatives, you can take a peek at our 2024 TV schedule, which is brimming with engaging viewing choices.
