'In 2013, television watchers found themselves in a self-proclaimed "golden
age" of streaming.

Primed with possibility, shows like House of Cards and Orange is the New
Black
 proved audience hits and critical darlings.

Then in 2016, one headline rang out like a harbinger: Bloodline Cancelled By
Netflix, And There's More Bad News
.

The thriller's cancellation was labelled the first high-profile original
Netflix series to be axed by the streaming giant.

And, it turned out, a sign of things to come.'
