Beautiful -- Up to the Bone-Headed Decision to Cancel Series
Just finished this entire season just to learn that there will be no season two. Besides feeling cheated that I will never find out what happens to the wonderful main character, after the cliffhanger of all cliffhangers, I am getting tired of dedicating my time to shows that are well-directed, well-acted, and extremely well-received, yet are never given a fair chance. If I'm this frustrated, I can't imagine how the actors and writers feel. Please, Amazon, stop canceling all these sophisticated shows, especially ones that women love. First, it was "Good Girls Revolt," one of the most brilliant, thought-provoking series I've seen in a long time, and now this. Meanwhile, all these violent, zombie-driven, male-dominated shows keep getting renewed, season after season.....Perhaps now that half of Hollywood is out of a job thanks to sexual assault, we'll start to see some female-driven, thoughtful and patient decisions around programming.
