Friends From College, the Keegan-Michael Key and Cobie Smulders starring sitcom, didn't get off to the best of starts, with its first season largely panned by critics. Despite that, however, it did come back for another go-around.

Friends From College Season 2 did receive more positive reviews after ironing out some of the wrinkles, but evidently, that wasn't enough to make another season worthwhile for the streaming service. Netflix initially started out by renewing almost everything - they operated differently to traditional networks and stood outside of that sphere. As they become an increasingly major TV player, however, they're also playing by some more of the same rules, hence why shows like Friends From College fall by the wayside after just two seasons.
