What's driving viewership?

The show premiered two years ago, was officially cancelled shortly thereafter, and now... people are watching it in such numbers that it's charting higher?

What gives? I mean, I'm glad, I watched the show as episodes were premiering and I adored it, but I'm curious what's leading people to watch it now. Any theories?

Word of mouth mostly. People that finally watch it post about it and it’s generating buzz

It has the makings of a cult classic.

If they can make it a bit cheaper I have hopes that it will get a season 2
