Netflix viewers left feeling ‘totally robbed’ after series given 'Mindhunter treatment' concluded on ‘most criminal cliffhanger ever’

Netflix viewers are not happy over a series that received the 'Mindhunter treatment' after it concluded on the on ‘most criminal cliffhanger ever’.

The term 'Mindhunter treatment' came about after Netflix canceled the Mindhunter TV series despite receiving incredible reviews for its two seasons on the streaming platform.

The series has an average Rotten Tomatoes tomatometer of 97 percent and popcornmeter of 95, though a season three of the show never came to fruition.

And many online believe The Society falls into this category, having never received a season two despite clicking with fans when it released in 2019.

The series follows a group of high school students who return from a canceled field trip to find their town of West Ham, Connecticut, is completely deserted of any adults.

A mysterious forest has surrounded the town, which has cut it off from the rest of the world. It truly is one heck of a ride after the students are left with limited resources to help fend for themselves.

Many are talking about The Society on Reddit after one user wrote: "We all have that one show or movie we loved on Netflix, the one you tell people about constantly, but for some reason, nobody ever seems to give it a shot. So let’s hear it: what’s your underrated favorite?"

One Redditor said they felt 'totally robbed' the fact The Society didn't receive a second season, while another said more episodes were required because of the ‘most criminal cliffhanger ever’ that came with season one.

While The Society was initially commissioned for a second season, Netflix canceled it alongside I Am Not Okay With This due to challenges faced with the Covid-19 pandemic.

Netflix said in a statement at the time: "We’ve made the difficult decision not to move forward with second seasons of The Society and I Am Not Okay With This.

"We’re disappointed to have to make these decisions due to circumstances created by COVID, and we are grateful to these creators, including: Jonathan Entwistle, Christy Hall, Shawn Levy, Dan Levine, Dan Cohen and Josh Barry at 21 Laps Entertainment for I Am Not Okay With This; Chris Keyser, Marc Webb and Pavlina Hatoupis for The Society; and all the writers, casts and crews who worked tirelessly to make these shows for our members around the world."
