The decision to cancel the shows came a month after Amazon passed on three of its five comedy pilots - Sea Oak, The Climb and Love You More - as part of its attempt to give more straight-to-series orders to better compete with competitors like Netflix, Apple and HBO.ĭespite the many originals the platform has cut in recent years ( The Last Tycoon, Z: The Beginning of Everything, Good Girls Revolt, Mad Dogs, Red Oaks and Crisis in Six Scenes), Amazon has produced its share of success stories, too. Mozart in the Jungle‘s axing comes four months after the streaming giant cut a trio of comedies from its roster - One Mississippi, I Love Dick and Jean-Claude Van Johnson - shortly after the ousting of its former programming head, Roy Price. As for viewership, Amazon (like streaming competitors Netflix and Hulu) does not release ratings. However, the awards favor quickly wore off as the show has failed to snatch up any real Globes or Emmy love in its three seasons since. The drama nabbed two Golden Globe awards out of the gate in 2016, one for best musical or comedy series and another for star Bernal’s performance. The show stars Gael Garcia Bernal, Lola Kirke, Malcolm McDowell, Bernadette Peters, Hannah Dunne, Saffron Burrows and Schwartzman. All episodes of the fourth season launched in February on Amazon. Based on Blair Tindall’s memoir of the same name, Mozart in the Jungle follows the dedicated members of the New York Symphony and the mind games and politicking they engage in to survive.
