From the moment, the show was canceled by NBC, all parties involved with the show have been working around the clock to find a new home for the sci-fi drama.
It’s been some time since Netflix last saved a show from cancellation; however, Manifest is making a strong argument for being a show worthy of being saved.
It is unclear why NBC chose to cancel Manifest, but the decision seems to have ultimately come down to the show’s ratings.
It also doesn’t hurt that the studio and streamer have previously collaborated on a similar situation in the form of Lucifer, which was also canceled after three seasons by a broadcast network and made the move over to Netflix shortly after.
