Regina King starrer drama series Seven Seconds was cancelled by Netflix in less than two months of its premiere as the producers Fox 21 decided against continuing it post the first season.&nbsp;

The series made by The Killing showrunner Veena Sud explored race in America with the help of a story involving the hit-and-run incident of an African-American teenager by a white Jersey City cop (Beau Knapp) and the crime's subsequent cover-up by the mostly white police force.

The series premiered on February 23 this year and received a bag of mixed responses.&nbsp;

While many would think that the series did not perform well, it looks like the drama reportedly had a 77 per cent liking among critics and 84 per cent among those who watched this. In an interview, VP Originals at Netflix, Cindy Holland said, "We loved working with Veena Sud, Regina King and the cast and crew of 'Seven Seconds'. Together they created a compelling, timely and relevant crime drama. The first season is a complete, stand-alone story that we are proud to feature on Netflix for years to come.”

In another, Fox 21 Television Studios president Bert Salke said his hope was for Seven Seconds&nbsp;to run for additional seasons, featuring old characters returning along with new faces in an anthology format as the series would remain rooted in Jersey City.

Now that they have cancelled it, Netflix plans to submit Seven Seconds as a limited series drama for Emmy consideration.
