Netflix cancels 'Exploding Kittens' after just 1 season

Entertainment Dec 01, 2025

Netflix has pulled the plug on "Exploding Kittens" after only one season.
The animated series, which dropped in July 2024, put a quirky spin on the hit card game—turning it into a suburban fantasy with cats as divine beings.
Even though it had a modest but broad audience and mixed reviews, the show never cracked Netflix's global top 10.

The franchise lives on—even if the show doesn't

Despite the cancelation, "Exploding Kittens" is still going strong as a card game and through its mobile version on Netflix Games.
Since it's a Netflix original, don't expect another platform to pick up the series—but you can still stream season one if you're curious.
