Mad Dogs cancelada por Amazon tras su primera temporada
Finalmente no habrá una segunda temporada para Mad Dogs. La serie de Amazon, a partir de una serie británica del mismo título, ha sido cancelada tal y como ha anunciado el productor Shawn Ryan a partir de una serie de «tuits».
El productor ha lanzado un total de 19 «tuits» en los que entre otras cosas, deja claro que ha sido solo decisión de Amazon el cancelar la serie a pesar de que ha tenido algunos de los mejores datos de streaming del portal. Por otro lado, agradece al equipo y a los fans por haber hecho posible la serie.
Entre sus mensajes, Ryan ha explicado además que Amazon sí estaba interesada en hacer una segunda temporada de Mad Dogs, aunque finalmente no ha sido posible ya que ni él ni el otro productor, Cris Cole quisieron ceder a la idea que tenía el portal. Por ello, se quedan contentos con los diez episodios ofrecidos.
Estos son los «tuits» ofrecidos por Shawn Ryan en los que habla de la cancelación de Mad Dogs:
1) Wanted to report that a decision was made not to make any more episodes of Mad Dogs.

2) We were lucky to be one the best reviewed dramas on Amazon, if not the best. A lot of critics got what we were going for, so thanks.

3) Some Amazon employees told me that Mad Dogs, after only four weeks, already had better streaming stats than many other Amazon shows.

4) So, thanks to the viewers for finding, embracing and binging the show. It’s been a blast to read your joy and shock on Twitter.

5) That said, Mad Dogs was originally intended to be a closed 10 episode limited series.

6) Many critics pointed out that this wasn’t the kind of concept destined for an extended multi-season run, and that’s right.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
7) But in order to get Season 1 made Amazon wanted to know that future seasons might be possible.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
8) Cris Cole and I said we thought there could be but we should have that conversation on if and how after the season was over.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
9) We had that conversation on Thursday with Roy Price and company. Cris and I laid out a story for Season 2 we believed in.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
10) Ultimately, Amazon didn’t want to make that story and we didn’t want to make the kind of story they wanted us to make, so…
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
11) It made more sense to declare victory after ten episodes, which was our original plan all along anyway.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
12) Mad Dogs is extremely important to Cris and I and we can’t do the show any other way than to follow Cris’ vision.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
13) Ultimately, I think it’s better to leave it there, pure and unsullied, than to do a watered down version of the show.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
14) I’m so proud of our 10 eps and how they turned out, despite the many obstacles in our way.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
15) Want to acknowledge Ben Chaplin, Michael Imperioli, Romany Malco and Steve Zahn. What talent and chemistry!
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
16) Want to thank all our writers, directors and especially our ridiculously hard working Puerto Rican crew.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
17) Especially want to thank Cris Cole who was a terrific collaborator. He stuck to his vision, morals and beliefs throughout.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
18) If you haven’t checked out Mad Dogs yet, I hope you will. It’s the full, complete crazy story we set out to tell over three years ago.
— Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) February 28, 2016
19) Oops. A cat just walked in. Looks like I have to go. See you on the next one. #MadDogs
