Overview

  • The decision comes about six weeks after Season 2 debuted on Sept. 25, which FX released all at once with a limited press rollout.
  • Former co-star Jon Ebeling accused Alvarez of two sexual assaults in December 2024, and Alvarez has denied the allegations.
  • FX declined to comment on the cancellation.
  • Both seasons drew strong reviews, with Season 1 at 98% and Season 2 at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, and the first season earned Critics Choice, Spirit Awards and WGA nominations.
  • Coverage noted the series struggled to gain traction after the allegations despite its critical acclaim.
