Netflix heeft de tv-reeks The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance na één seizoen afgevoerd en daardoor onbewust nog meer olie op het vuur gegooid van de recente controverse rond de film Mignonnes, die de streamingdienst al veel abonnees zou hebben gekost.

Volgens sommigen promoot Mignonnes namelijk de seksuele uitbuiting van kinderen, terwijl de film eigenlijk de problematiek aan de kaak probeert te stellen.

Hoe dan ook begrijpen veel mensen op Twitter niet waarom Netflix The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, die de Emmy voor Beste Kinderprogramma won, afvoert, maar een ‘pedofiele’ film als Mignonnes verdedigt.

Per the io9 report, Netflix has cancelled The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. Maybe they shouldn't have bought Cuties and put that money into this amazing series. Hopefully Amazon or Hulu will pick it up and finish what Netflix started. pic.twitter.com/81IyKhbxXA

So Netflix gives the thumbs up to trash like Cuties and Big Mouth and wants to remake a sh*tty live action Last Airbender, but cancels Dark Crystal, Sabrina, and like 50 other actually good things? Is Beastars still getting a second season or did they cancel it too?
