Despite a social media campaign pleading for "Everything Sucks!" to be renewed, the Oregon-filmed series has been canceled by Netflix, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Lesley Goldberg reports that the series, a high school comedy-drama that takes place in 1996 and is set in Boring, Oregon, was axed after one season despite drawing generally positive reviews. The actual viewership numbers aren't known, because, as Goldberg writes, Netflix "does not release viewership information."

The series, created by Ben York Jones and Michael Mohan, focused on students at the fictional Boring High School, specifically members of the school A.V. club and the drama club.

The tone was gentle, and the series had fun with '90s nostalgia, and also handled with sensitivity a coming-out story for the character of Kate (Peyton Kennedy), a sophomore realizing that she's a lesbian.

The ensemble cast featured fine performances by Kennedy and by Jahi D'Allo Winston as a would-be filmmaker who at first has a crush on Kate, and then becomes her friend.

"Everything Sucks!" filmed on location in Oregon City and Portland in the summer of 2017. The series made its streaming debut on Netflix Feb. 16.

In recent weeks, a campaign asking Netflix to renew "Everything Sucks" has been showing up on Twiitter and elsewhere. A similar campaign was being waged for "One Day a Time."

While Netflix did renew that show for a third season, "Everything Sucks!" will end after only one season.
