Actor Denis O’Hare is proposing a tongue-in-cheek plan to fans of cancelled Netflix show The Boroughs. O’Hare, who played Wally in the sci-fi series, was left feeling “bummed” after the show’s cancellation.
The actor thinks that with just a few days left for Emmy voting, fans should vote for The Boroughs, including O’Hare himself, to “stick it to Netflix.” He believes this would be “sweet revenge” for the network’s decision. O’Hare has been impressed by how many people have expressed their love for the show.
Despite initial strong reviews and a dedicated fan base, The Boroughs struggled with soft ratings. Despite its cancellation, the cast continues to support the show, with some members even urging Netflix to reconsider.
O’Hare himself acknowledges that The Boroughs had potential but notes the plot’s lack of cohesion was a major issue. He laments the network’s approach to decision-making, stating that they prioritize subscriber growth over viewer engagement. Despite his concerns, O’Hare remains optimistic about the show’s quality and encourages fans to keep pushing for its continuation.
O’Hare is not alone in his admiration for The Boroughs. Geena Davis, another cast member, expressed similar bewilderment at the cancellation.
