Prime Video is starting to look a bit like FOX: They'd green-light great sci-fi shows, but drop them after one season if they weren't immediately profitable. No effort to market them or grow the audience, just a quick death and a lot of loose ends. While other networks, including NBC, ABC, and Netflix, have done this as well, FOX was especially notorious for it, with shows like Firefly, Almost Human, Terra Nova, Minority Report, Alcatraz, Space: Above and Beyond, and Alien Nation all being axed after one season. It's too bad. If you've read the books, there was a lot more they could have done with this.
It was recently cancelled in part due to the writers strike. Which as we all know is an excuse to hammer the help. The Actors, Directors, the caterers, the audience. Everyone, not, the "Money People". This is some of the best ever sci fi on tv. I hope another studio picks it up.

The show is not over yet; it has not been cancelled. Unfortunately it has nor been renewed either. We'll have to wait for Amazon to make an official announcement about its future. This may be soon enough or it may take months. We'll see... :)
