Netflix reportedly plans to cut spending by $300 million this year
Netflix is planning to cut its spending by $300 million this year, according to a new report from The Wall Street Journal.

All 11 Netflix TV Shows Canceled Or Ending In 2023 (So Far)
Each year, dozens and dozens of shows get canceled by TV networks, and that’s before you count those that come to a natural conclusion after a final season. Some are beloved shows, others just couldn’t seem to find the audience they were looking for. Among those that tend to cut a large batch of shows every year is Netflix. Once upon a time, the streaming service took pride in letting shows take the time to find their footing, sometimes over multiple seasons. Those days are in the past, though.
Each year, a decent portion of the canceled and ending shows comes from Netflix, including some truly surprising entries. Remember the live-action adaptation of Cowboy Bebop or even the botched attempt to bring Resident Evil to life on the streaming giant? Still, while many shows never get past a first season on Netflix, some go on to become massive hits that get to live out their life cycles, like Stranger Things.
This year, Netflix has already said goodbye to several major titles, including the Karate Kid follow-up series Cobra Kai, which it rescued from YouTube Premium–as well as a number of adult animated series, including the popular Big Mouth. Take a look below at everything Netflix has said goodbye to. And if there are any you haven’t watched yet or you’re in the mood for a short binge, the good news is you can still go catch up with most of them on the streaming service right now. And while you’re at it, check out our look at every show canceled this year across all networks!

Netflix is launching a remastered ‘World of Goo’ on May 23rd
You can soon log into your Netflix account and build bridges, towers, zeppelins and other structures with jiggly talking balls of goo. The World of Goo, the physics-based hit game by indie developer 2D Boy, is being remastered for mobile exclusively for the streaming giant. And when it launches on May 23rd, you can play it for free, with no ads on in-app purchases, regardless of your membership tier.
The physics game first launched in 2008 for Microsoft Windows and Wii before it made its way to Android and iOS, Mac OS, Linux and Switch in the years that followed. To win a level in the game, you’ll have to use the balls of goo to build structures and get over pits, hills and other obstacles. There are several species of goo, and each one comes with its own unique ability.
The remaster still features the same levels, puzzles and areas, but the art has been updated to double the resolution of the original game. It has also been optimized for modern screen sizes so that it would look good on any device. The game will save your progress across devices, but take note that it tracks each profile separately.
Back in March, Netflix announced its plans to add roughly 40 more titles to its gaming library, in hopes that you can find at least one that appeals to you. Back then, Netflix VP of external games Leanne Loombe said users are mostly drawn to three specific types of games, including titles they recognize from elsewhere and ones that encourage daily play. World of Goo certainly fits those two categories.
