9,000 fans and counting have signed a petition in a desperate bid to save Netflix show Lockwood & Co.
The supernatural program was removed after just one series by the streaming platform.
But Netflix’s decision not to renew for a second season has drawn strong backlash, with thousands of viewers signing a petition to urge bosses not to pull the plug.
The petition gained momentum on Twitter, with fans expressing their fury over the decision to cancel the show under the hashtags #SaveLockwoodandCo and #LockwoodandCo.
One wrote: “This show deserves to have a longer runtime!” The adaptation was so perfect for the books and the acting was phenomenal. There are so few family shows today (especially on Netflix) that people can connect with; this one has so much story to tell.

‘Just an awesome show. Had everything. Ghostbusters/ Goonies/ Conjuring/ Harry Potter all in one show. This is a mistake,” another avid viewer added.
Netflix announced in a statement that the series “will not be returning for a second series.”
The statement read: ‘With a heavy heart, we announce that Lockwood & Co will not be returning for a second series…
“For the fans – for Lock Nation – you were truly the best. We can’t thank you enough for how much you embraced, celebrated and loved the show.
“We are especially proud of the talented young actors who have brought Jonathan’s beloved fictional characters to the screen with such warmth, charm and vulnerability.
