The Duffer Brothers’ sci-fi series “The Boroughs” has been canceled by Netflix after one season.
The show, which was executive produced by the “Stranger Things” creators, debuted in May 2026 off the heels of that show’s final season. “The Boroughs” starred Alfred Molina and Alfre Woodard and followed a group of unlikely heroes at a retirement community who must “band together to stop an otherworldly threat from stealing the one thing they don’t have … time,” according to the logline.
The series, created by Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews, was affectionately compared to “Stranger Things” — but with old people.
Deadline broke the news.
