Honestly, in most cases, studios should just guarantee 3 seasons because that’s how long it takes to really find if a show will actually get any sort of following.
To be honest, I feel like streamers keep trying to gun for a The Office or Last Airbender level hit, but don’t realize that those shows wouldn’t have survived today under the current metric by which they evaluate a show’s success. They ignore the whole point of streaming: a show should have more time to find success - potential fans will get to it when they get to it.

What are they going to do if season one flops?

“Prodigy” has demonstrated that they’re willing to cancel something they gave an early renewal to.

Prodigy is boring. There, I said it.

Hopefully nothing because every first season of a new ST series is a flop.

Strange New Worlds season one was excellent
