I think this might be the only context where it’s actually confusing. If it was a new album by a musician I’d know exactly what “drops” meant. If it’s criminal charges or a lead actor accused of sexual harassment I’d know what “drops” meant. But when the “drops” as in “releases” bleeds over from music to Netflix (which might also have a headline, “Netflix drops Fuller House because of Lori Loughlin arrest”) it does feel like, as you say, an evolutionary dead end.
