Major TV Finales and Cancellations in 2025

In 2025, the TV landscape is marked by the planned conclusions of major series like 'Stranger Things,' which ends with a two-part finale on Netflix, and 'The Summer I Turned Pretty,' wrapping up its third season on Prime Video. The year has also seen a notable wave of cancellations, including 'Pulse,' 'The Residence,' 'Found,' and 'S.W.A.T.,' though some shows such as 'On Call' may seek new platforms. Comedy specials reflecting on mortality are trending, while streaming services continue to highlight new and classic thrillers, such as 'Borderline' and 'Argo' on Peacock and 'A Simple Favor' and 'Fight Club' on Hulu. Other trending titles include 'Wet Hot American Summer' on Netflix and a new 'War of the Worlds' series on Prime Video. Despite disappointment over cancellations, fans benefit from extensive streaming libraries that allow revisiting favorites. The changes reflect both ongoing viewer engagement and frustration in a rapidly evolving TV environment.
