Why Was It Cancelled?  This time-bending received very little in the way of promotion (as is typical from the streaming services) and it may have been overshadowed by higher-profile premieres like the second half of Stranger Things Season 4, The Sandman, and House of the Dragon leading to its cancellation.  It did not crack into the Nielsen Streaming Top 10 though it was well-received by critics and fans, currently holding a 90% Fresh Rating and 88% Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes.  The production comes from Amazon Studios and Legendary TV and the latter will be shopping it around to other venues.  Fans of the show can help with those efforts by making some noise in support of the show on the social networks.
