Sunny
A one-season sci-fi series has been cancelled byApple TV+despite its promising cliffhanger ending.
For the past couple of months, there have been relatively few major renewals and cancellations.
However,for one sci-fi standout, it’s the end of the road.
Co-produced by A24 and created by Katie Robbins, the Japan-set series is based on Colin O’Sullivan’sThe Dark Manualnovel.
TVLineconfirmedSunny’s cancellation, despite a cliffhanger ending that hinted there was more to the story.
Without veering too much into spoiler territory, Suzie gets paired with a domestic robot.
That has since been supplanted bySiloseason 2, which is impressing both audiences and critics.
However,the audience rating has slipped to 66%.
How Do Apple TV+’s Renewals & Cancellations Stack Up For 2024?
Suzie, an American woman living in Kyoto, Japan, grapples with the mysterious disappearance of her husband and son in a plane crash. Given a domestic robot named Sunny by her husband’s company, Suzie initially resents Sunny but soon they form a unique bond. Together, they uncover the dark truth behind her family’s disappearance, becoming entangled in a dangerous and hidden world.
That raises the question of how many shows Apple TV+ renewed this year versus how many it cancelled.
The list of shows cancelled in 2024, with only a few days to go, is significantly smaller.
Apple TV+ has cancelled six of its shows in 2024.
They includeSunny,Time Bandits,Still Up,The Big Door Prize,Schmigadoon!, andConstellation.
