When you hear about Netflix Originals, there’s the misconception that they will remain on the streamer forever. However, in recent years, we’ve seen that not be the cast, and Between is the latest original series to get quietly removed from the platform.
Between was a Canadian series that ran for two seasons. In Canada, it aired on CityTV, but outside of the country, it became a Netflix Original after the streamer bought the licensing rights. What’s on Netflix notes that the cult sci-fi thriller will leave the platform on July 1, 2026.
If something is an original, how can it leave the platform? There are a couple of reasons for this. One will be the agreement set when Netflix acquired the licensing rights for the global release. Another will be due to viewership.
What’s on Netflix confirms that this is linked to the co-production licensing agreement, which lasts for 10 years. As the second season of the series dropped in July 2016, the 10-year agreement has come to an end. Where it will go next is uncertain, as the rights will revert back to CityTV’s owner, Rogers.
It doesn’t help that Between was one of those “ghost cancellations” that TV shows see now and then. After two seasons and a major cliffhanger, there was never any word about a renewal from either Netflix or CityTV. In the end, it was assumed to be canceled, as lead actress Jennette McCurdy, from iCarly fame, stepped away from acting.
Is ‘Between’ Worth the Binge-Watch Before It Leaves Netflix?
The two-season series only has 12 episodes, making it an easy binge-watch before it leaves the streamer on July 1. The last full day to watch the show will be June 30, 2026, so you’ll want to keep that in mind.
While it didn’t fare well with the critics, it did amass a cult following. The series follows the people of a small town called Pretty Lake. When a mysterious disease kills everybody over the age of 21, the town is quarantined and effectively left to fend for itself. It leads to government conspiracies, a Lord of the Flies-style of storytelling as teenagers figure out how to navigate survival.
Just be aware of the cliffhanger ending, as it’s clear there was the intention to continue the story before it was quietly forgotten about.
