Netflix CANCELS ‘The Residence’ Despite Strong Debut

It’s lights out for ‘The Residence.’ For, Netflix has officially canceled the Shondaland-backed murder mystery after just one season despite a star-studded cast, critical acclaim, and a Top 10 debut.

Full story below…

Led by Uzo Aduba as eccentric detective Cordelia Cupp, the White House-set whodunit made a splash in March, drawing praise and an 85% Rotten Tomatoes score. But even strong buzz couldn’t save it from Netflix’s signature cost-cutting formula. The show’s high production expense, including a seven-stage White House replica, proved too steep for a sophomore season.

Though built as an anthology with Aduba poised to return in a new case, budget talks fizzled. Fans are left mourning what could’ve been another long-running Shondaland gem.

Also on the potential chopping block? Medical drama ‘Pulse’ and dark comedy ‘No Good Deed’ are still hanging in the balance.
