I know animation is typically well into production but Cuphead’s release feels a bit rushed. 3 seasons in 1 year is crazy to me. It’s supposedly going for 4 seasons, but when it releases next year it’ll basically be over.

That's because "Season 2" was actually left-over episodes of Season 1. Something that the people behind The Cuphead Show quickly took notice. Couldn't find many videos on this, but this is the best I could find.

Sounds as if Netflix is trying to hurry up and hit the 4 season quota and drop it.

I haven’t heard anyone say a single thing about this show other than the occasional “it’s okay”

They order all the episodes at once so they can qualify it as a single-season order and pay the crew less, but then break it up over time to spread the content out. It’s likely that the first/second batch of episodes was done for some time, they just waited until they could space it out over a couple months instead of years.

I was thinking the same thing. S2 just came out and was hoping Id have something to look forward to next year when I got around to playing the dlc. But now the show is over and done with, I cant imagine netflix renewing this.

And S2 was actually the remaining couple of episodes of Season 1.
