Hulu cancels 2 great shows before their time 

As a seasoned gamer and TV enthusiast with over three decades of binge-watching under my belt, I can confidently say that the recent cancellations of “UnPrisoned” and “Black Cake” by Hulu have left me feeling like a kid who’s just been grounded for life. These shows, each unique in their own right, had the potential to become timeless classics, but alas, they were snatched away prematurely, leaving us with more questions than answers.


As the year is about to wrap up, it’s likely we’ll hear about even more TV show cancellations. The fall season’s first two canceled shows that left a bitter taste? “UnPrisoned” and “Black Cake”. We’re disappointed, Hulu!

TV enthusiasts often experience sadness due to the frequent cancellation of shows they adore. While we eagerly anticipate the thrill of a fresh series or renewal of a season, cancellations are an inevitable part of the TV landscape. Unfortunately, these cancellations frequently occur before the story can be properly concluded, leaving fans with lingering questions (or frustrating cliffhangers) as their cherished shows were terminated prematurely. Recently, Hulu has decided to cancel two highly-regarded series, so get ready for some unresolved plot threads.

We’re not sure why Hulu has canceled UnPrisoned 

Is there anything we could express differently in a conversational and clear manner? It seems that what our world requires more of is quality television content. Unfortunately, it’s truly disappointing to learn that Hulu has cancelled the series UnPrisoned after just two seasons. This dramedy features Kerry Washington as Paige Alexander, a mother on her own whose life takes an unforeseen twist when her long-lost father (Delroy Lindo), who was recently released from prison, unexpectedly shows up at her doorstep.

It appeared that UnPrisoned offered an appealing narrative, ample humor, and a talented ensemble. Yet, Hulu decided to terminate it, and no specific reason was disclosed by the streaming service. However, considering the ratings and rumors preceding the announcement, we speculate that multiple factors might have contributed to this decision. Primarily, UnPrisoned probably failed to attract a sufficient audience to cover its production expenses. Kerry Washington informed fans about this development via social media, as shown in her subsequent post. Here’s what she posted: [Insert Kerry Washington’s message here]

Sorry, folks! Black Cake season 2 is not happening 

What hurts more than the cancelation of a beloved series? When it is axed after only ONE season. Come on, Hulu! You could have given Black Cake a second chance! We can’t say we are too surprised about this one, though, since it has been almost a year since season 1 was released. After a few months, you pretty much have to assume the worst. Deadline broke the news that Hulu has made the ending of the series official. 

The novel “Black Cake” by Charmaine Wilkerson revolves around the enigma of a bride who vanished at sea off the coast of Jamaica. Was it an accidental drowning or is she hiding from her husband’s murder? Or could it be a combination of both? The family saga features performances from Adrienne Warren and Mia Isaac.

Which of these two Hulu shows will you miss the most?
