Cancelled! But there's hope...

Fucking sucks! I wish more get introduced to this show. It's fantastic!

As my friends & I have dubbed it, the best show that no one's watching.

Warrior is expected to debut on Netflix in February 2024. If it does well, Netflix could presumably order a new season of the drama based on an original concept and treatment by Bruce Lee, sources tell Deadline exclusively.

Relying on Netflix to renew this really is a long shot.

It's something. Otherwise, it's gone.

At least (and hopefully), this gets a new audience.

Netflix has a global reach that HBO Max doesn't. Fingers crossed & all that.

It had a decent ending. They should leave it alone. Netflix likes to ruin things.

Signed, million man

I fucking love this show & was hoping (not expecting given it's lean times at WB these days) a S4 renewal announcement would come after the strikes ended. Maybe there was streaming data showing crazy numbers in China & execs would keep it for cross cultural appeal. Bummer.

There is some hope Netflix could save it, they've saved a bunch of other shows before. I'll be playing it on repeat once it hits Netflix in Feb.

Same! I hope the writers are at least given one more season to wrap everything up.

I started watching this show for the epic fights but the story was engaging af!

Good news----Warrior just started streaming on Netflix barely two days ago, and it's already become one of the top 10 currently most watched shows on there. Here's a nice little couple of reviews of it:

I don't agree with this writer's review, but it was pretty good: https://decider.com/2024/02/16/warrior-netflix-review/

Here's a really good interview with Warrior star Andrew Koji, some of the showrunners, and cast members from last summer, shortly after the 3rd season kicked off:
