Obviously if it's a bad show, kill it, but also consider that sometimes a show needs time to grow.

Look at season 1 of Parks and Rec, it was rough. Or The Office, it was fine but didn't find it's own until season 2.

You also have to consider that a show might need a little time to build an audience. I don't currently subscribe to Netflix, but I have in the past. I may subscribe again soon, I like Jeff Goldbloom, but now I know his show is cancelled, I guess I'll wait to subscribe.

I know they're hoping for one big show to get me to subscribe, but maybe a steady stream of shows would work just as well.
