As it stands right now, there will be no second season of Damnation. And that might well cause many people not to bother watching this series. But Netflix has demonstrated that it is no better than the traditional television networks at placing quality at or near the top of the list of priorities when it comes to maintaining or cancelling its programs. Fans of Dirk Gently, which Netflix has also cancelled, will attest to this. Damnation and Dirk Gently join a long list of excellent television series, such as Deadwood, The Black Donnellys or My Name is Earl which were cut off by boardroom executives who probably never even bothered to watch these shows, who place endless increase in ratings above all other things, who believe that a show’s worth can be measured in nothing else but numbers. You should watch Damnation. You should watch it and, if you think that it is a show that deserves far better than it received, then you should let Netflix know that they were wrong...
