I didn’t even know The Residence was intended to be multiple seasons. I assumed the show was named after the White House, but I guess “The Residence” could just have meant the current murder home of the season.

Eh, it didn’t deserve any more than it got. It enjoyed pointless filler like recapping itself every 20 minutes, and couldn’t stop itself from telling us instead of showing us things.

Every character fawns over Cupp as the greatest detective to ever live but in reality she’s only a good interrogator. The show also REALLY liked sniffing its own farts on her “quirky” behavior. There was never a point to the birding, just more stalling and filler. In the final summation we get one last birding bit but it wasn’t actually germane.

It could have been half the runtime and better for it.

netflix cancelled blood of zeus, because they dint wnat to pay for the series anymore, so they had to wrap up everything, it was a pretty bad ending. they do often to draw in more subscribers than cancel the shows, and they also prevent them from going to other studies to finish or continue a series.

If they at least saw things wrapped up, even if prematurely, I'd be more okay with it. But all my favourite Netflix series (Santa Clarita Diet, Kaos, etc) were all dropped without such an effort.

I had to cancel my Netflix subscription because that isn't worth it.
