According to Deadline, Netflix has decided not to renew comedy series Haters Back Off for a third season.
Netflix canceled the series, which is based on a famous YouTube personality Colleen Ballinger’s weird character Miranda Sings. Deadline reports that based on the viewership data they were able to collect, Haters Back Off had a good start when it was released. But in the long run, Ballinger’s YouTube following was not enough to keep the show going.
That said, YouTube may pick up the series for a third season, which often features series starring famous YouTube personalities.
The series starred Ballinger as Miranda Sings, Steve Little as Miranda’s Uncle Jim, Angela Kinsey as Miranda’s mom, Bethany, Erik Stocklin, as Miranda’s neighbor and best friend, Patrick, and Francesca Reale as Miranda’s sister, Emily.
It is essential to note Netflix has just started canceling TV series. Deadline points out that Of 18 new scripted set to premiere on Netflix in 2017, 13 have been renewed, only two canceled and three are pending, with most if not all of them looking good to come back. In fact, in the last week, Netflix renewed Stranger Things and Mindhunter.
