Bloodline

Netflix officially canceled *Bloodline* after three seasons, reportedly due to the high cost of filming on location in the Florida Keys and changes in Florida's tax rebate structure for film productions. The show's complex narrative required a massive ensemble cast, which further drove up production costs. The final season was reduced to 10 episodes instead of the standard 13 to help close out the story.

The series is famously set and filmed on location in the Florida Keys, specifically in the Upper Keys region around Islamorada. The fictional Rayburn House Inn, a central location in the show, is portrayed by the real-life Moorings Village & Spa. The tropical, isolated setting is vital to the show's psychological thriller atmosphere.

The central mystery revolves around the Rayburn family's dark history, specifically the death of the eldest sibling, Danny (played by Ben Mendelsohn), at the hands of his brother John (Kyle Chandler). The family spends the series attempting to cover up this murder while dealing with the fallout of Danny's criminal ties. The show's narrative is driven by the psychological toll of keeping this horrific secret hidden from the community.

There are exactly three seasons of *Bloodline* available on Netflix. The series debuted its 13-episode first season in 2015, followed by a second season in 2016. The show concluded with a 10-episode final season released in 2017.
