yeah, it was cancelled back in early May by Fox, though Tom Ellis himself along with the showrunners are talking to and targeting streaming services (rather than another network) and apparently Netflix asked for some production details but seems that's just more standard practice (probably especially since they already have what a season four would look like planned out) though does mean they didn't immediately reject the idea
and Fox announced they're going to air the two "standalone" episodes that were shot but held back to fill schedule gaps in a potential season four (they did this last season, four were shot during season two's cycle but held back for season three with some minor reshoots done...originally in part because Maze's actress got pregnant), they initially weren't going to air them, just stick them in the season packages, etc. but changed their mind this week to air them both next week
i don't really expect it to get picked up but it getting away from a network procedural demand to become tighter plotted/better serialized would be kinda cool even if only for a wrap up season (of half-size versus network season sizes) or two
i really should also learn my lesson about shows starring the devil...first Reaper ends on a cliffhanger, now this!
