Overview
- Netflix’s What We Watched report shows Boots logged about 30.7 million views from its October 9 launch through December 2025, ranking No. 23 for the July–December period.
- The series is the highest-ranked title on that list that Netflix has canceled, outdrawing several renewed or ongoing franchises released in the same window.
- Boots earned strong reception, posting 90% scores from critics and audiences on Rotten Tomatoes and spending four weeks in Netflix’s English-language Top 10, peaking at No. 2.
- Pentagon Press Secretary Kingsley Wilson publicly attacked the show as “woke garbage,” and reporting links that attention to a post-premiere viewership increase.
- Netflix has not offered a detailed rationale for ending the Sony Pictures Television-produced series, with reporting only pointing to private metrics such as completion rate and potential Season 2 direction as unconfirmed factors.
