**Netflix Axes “The Residence” and “Pulse” Despite Star Power, Leaves Door Open for “No Good Deed” Reboot**

**Hollywood, CA** – Netflix has made a series of decisions regarding its original scripted programming, renewing a slew of series while canceling two freshman shows and leaving the door open for a potential reboot of a third, Deadline has exclusively learned.

The streaming giant has given the green light to new seasons of several titles, including, “Man on the Inside,” “Running Point,” “The Four Seasons,” “Beauty in Black,” “Forever,” “North of North,” “Ransom Canyon,” and “Bet”.

However, in a blow to fans of both medical dramas and murder mysteries, “Pulse,” starring Willa Fitzgerald and Colin Woodell, and “The Residence,” featuring an all-star cast led by Uzo Aduba, have been canceled. Sources indicate that “Pulse” was quietly axed over a month ago, while the decision regarding “The Residence” is more recent.

“Pulse,” which explored sexual harassment in the workplace within a medical setting, struggled to gain traction, launching amidst a wave of similar medical dramas that had already secured renewals. The premiere of “The Pitt,” releasing it’s penultimate episode of Season 1 the same day, may have factored into “Pulse’s” failure to secure a following.

“The Residence,” a comedic murder mystery set in the White House, was reportedly a costly production and faced fierce competition from Netflix’s hit series “Adolescence,” which dominated viewership charts and social conversation. Despite coming from Shonda Rhimes’ Shondaland and starring Emmy winner Aduba, the show, originally conceived as an anthology, could not overcome the financial hurdles. Budget-cutting options were discussed to make Season 2 a realit, but that did not come to fruition.

Both canceled shows spent four weeks in Netflix’s weekly global Top 10 (English), with “Pulse” peaking at No. 3 with 8.5M views and “The Residence” at No. 2 with 8.8M views.

Meanwhile, the fate of “No Good Deed,” a dark comedy anthology starring Lisa Kudrow, Ray Romano, O-T Fagbenle, and Teyonah Parris, remains uncertain. While there are currently no plans for a second season, sources say creator Liz Feldman could potentially pitch a new idea for a future installment with a fresh cast and storyline.

Netflix has also renewed several established hits, including “Bridgerton” (Seasons 5-6), “The Diplomat” (S4), “The Lincoln Lawyer” (S4), “My Life with the Walter Boys” (S3), “Tires” (S3), and “Survival of the Thickest” (S3, final season).
