Netflix Cancels ‘Turn Up Charlie’

After premiering on the streamer over a year ago, the comedy’s set at Netflix has come to an end.

The series focused on a struggling DJ who becomes a manny for a mischevious child while in the midst of rebuilding his music career. Although Netflix does not release viewership figures, decisions to cancel series are ultimately made based off of internal data viewing vs. cost.

“‘Turn Up Charlie’ will not return for a second season,” Netflix said today in a prepared statement. “We’re especially grateful to star and executive producer Idris Elba, who turned his passion for DJing into a witty, heart-warming comedy series. We’re also thankful to executive producers Gary Reich and Tristram Shapeero and co-executive producers Martin Joyce and Ana Garanito, along with the dedicated cast and crew, for bringing this story to life on Netflix. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Idris on future projects.”
