A Spanish Sports Drama Bites the Dust on Netflix
Netflix has decided to discontinue its Spanish sports drama, Olympo, after just one season. The show followed young athletes pushing their limits at a top-notch training center in the Pyrenees.
Despite a solid audience score of 75% on Rotten Tomatoes, Netflix chose not to renew the series for a second season.
The News
The cancellation was announced six months after the first season premiered on Netflix. While it's not uncommon for shows to be canceled after one season, it's always disappointing for fans who became invested in the characters and their journeys.
Behind the Scenes
Olympo was directed by a trio of talented filmmakers:
- Daniel Barone
- Marçal Forés
- Ibai Abad
The series was written by Laia Foguet and featured a cast of rising stars:
- Clara Galle
- María Romanillos
- Nuno Gallego
The show blended drama, sports, and romance, offering a mix of intense training scenes and personal struggles.
Still Available
For those who haven't watched it yet, Olympo is still available on Netflix. It's worth a watch if you enjoy sports dramas with a Spanish twist.
Who knows? Maybe the show will find a new home or gain a cult following that changes Netflix's mind.
