The thing is, their strategy is fundamentally flawed. They understood they needed to build up a library, but their metrics chased subscriber uptick that said “Only the first two seasons matter.” So, with a couple of exceptions they’re building up a large library of cancelled shows.

So people wait until more seasons or the show is entirely out. Which is also increasingly common. People are getting tired of waiting a year between seasons, when there are entire complete shows they could binge watch right now. So they wait. Which means Netflix never sees the season 1 viewers they need. Some shows just don't hit their stride until two or more seasons in. Parks and Rec had a really rough first season.
