NETFLIX has decided to save a beloved comedy show from being cancelled after it came under fire recently from fans. <\/p>\n
It comes just days after viewers were "cancelling subscriptions" as the fan-favourite TV series was axed from the streaming site.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Bosses had announced that popular TV show Peep Show\u00a0will be removed from\u00a0Netflix\u00a0UK in September.<\/p>\n
Fans were left raging about the news and aired their frustration on social media. <\/p>\n
But now the streaming giant has done a U-turn and decided to keep the popular British comedy series. <\/p>\n
A fan took to X, formerly known as Twitter to ask: "The date warning badge has now been removed from Peep Show…can you confirm, Netflix?"<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Netflix responded: "It was decided this would have been so not Rainbow Rhythms, so Peep Show will remain on Netflix."<\/p>\n
Fans were relieved to find out the beloved show will remain. <\/p>\n
One wrote: "I see. You were lampooning us. It was a simple lampoon."<\/p>\n
A second penned: "You had us for a second Netflix."<\/p>\n
