Avenue 5 would have become great if they got another season to figure it out. It also had some unusual class commentary iirc. It deliberately showed just enough that I thought it would become a major plot point or theme but it never did.
Ye it seemed like they had a lot of material to work with but I’m guessing production costs and lack of viewers sent it to an early grave. I think a lot of people didn’t know it existed. There wasn’t much marketing for it.
The HBO merger with what’s it called didn’t help, either. The current CEO hates fantasy and sci-fi, preferring stuff like reality TV or dramas like Succession and The Undoing.
