Space Force, the comedy series from Parks and Recreation co-creator Greg Daniels, has been cancelled. The cancellation comes a few weeks after season two's February 18 premiere. It was reportedly cancelled for typical reasons the streaming service cancels shows. It wasn't attracting enough of an audience to keep it running.

As Engadget pointed out, the cancellation comes days after Netflix laid off a significant number of staff it hired to run its Tudum fansite. The service has also recently revealed it lost around 200,000 subscribers in the first quarter of 2022, its first loss in a decade.
