One of the cartoon series I was watching got cancelled regardless of good reviews and considerable audience. It was just for a tax write off because merger between WarnerMedia and Discovery was happening at the time. The story is even more ridiculous because the original creator fought for 2 years to at least get to release a separate graphical novel to tie down the plot from a massive cliffhanger it was left with. He's covering that out of his own pocket, can't sell nor even advertise outside of the platform he owns (literally a wordpress.com website) and a bunch of other pretty insane requirements because of how tax write off works for media producers.
