A Spanish Sports Drama Bites the Dust on Netflix

Netflix has decided to pull the plug on its Spanish sports drama, Olympo, after just one season. This show was all about young athletes pushing their limits at a top-notch training center in the Pyrenees. Despite a solid audience score of 75% on Rotten Tomatoes, it seems the streaming giant wasn't convinced enough to greenlight a second season. The news comes six months after the first season dropped on Netflix. It's not uncommon for shows to get the axe after one season, but it's always a bummer for fans who got invested in the characters and their journeys.Olympo was directed by a trio of talented filmmakers: Daniel Barone, Marçal Forés, and Ibai Abad. The series was written by Laia Foguet and featured a cast of rising stars like Clara Galle, María Romanillos, and Nuno Gallego. The show blended drama, sports, and romance, offering a mix of intense training scenes and personal struggles. For those who haven't caught up, Olympo is still available on Netflix. It's worth a watch if you're into sports dramas with a Spanish twist. Who knows? Maybe the show will find a new home or gain a cult following that changes Netflix's mind.
