> Before Cowboy Bebop, I met this composer. And the composer was female and very eclectic. And during the production, she would kinda just roll around on the floor and do very strange things. And on occasion she would make strange noises. I thought it would be interesting if I could put her in as a character in my next series.
Yep that tracks

Did it fail? I enjoyed it! I don’t stay up to date with the critics though. Hope this doesn't mean the second season won’t get made.

It was cancelled within a handful of episodes airing.
Personally, as a fan of the animated series, I thought it was awful and only made it through the first episode and half of the second.

It failed and got canceled by Netflix.
Now, I know getting canceled by Netflix means little. I gave this show a chance, after being impressed with the intro sequence remake, but found it to be soulless. Maybe Cowboy Bebop just doesn't translate to live action; what seemed charming in the original was played for kitsch in the remake.
I couldn't even make it to the last episodes.

Show was an abomination. Hard to watch. And yes it's one of Netflix's smarter cancellations.

It was cancelled pretty quickly. There was a lot of hate for it. I enjoyed it for what it was and would have liked to see another season.
