Major TV Cancellations and Streaming Trends in 2025

In June 2025, the television industry saw significant shifts as major networks and streaming platforms announced a series of cancellations and renewals. Fox canceled The Cleaning Lady and Alert: Missing Persons Unit, while The CW renewed All American for an eighth and final season. Paramount+'s Star Trek: Strange New Worlds was renewed for a shortened fifth and final season, and Prime Video canceled the ballet dramedy Étoile, created by Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino, after just one season despite initial multi-season plans. NBC's completed series Blindspot has gained renewed popularity on streaming, while summer TV guides have recommended completed comedies and dramas such as Seth Rogen's The Studio and Adults for binge-watching. Streaming platforms, including Peacock, are featuring rotating selections of thrillers and action series, urging viewers to catch them before they leave. These changes highlight the unpredictable and competitive nature of television programming in 2025.
