Hulu’s Harlots Cancelled
It’s been revealed by Deadline, that the Hulu drama Harlots has been cancelled after three seasons. The last season aired in August last year, but it won’t be returning for a fourth.
Set against the backdrop of 18th century Georgian London, Harlots is a powerful family drama offering a brand new take on the city’s most valuable commercial activity – sex. Based on the stories of real women, the series follows Margaret Wells (Samantha Morton) and her daughters, as she struggles to reconcile her roles as mother and brothel owner. When her business comes under attack from Lydia Quigley (Lesley Manville), a rival madam with a ruthless streak, Margaret will fight back, even if it means putting her family at risk. Brown Findlay will star as Charlotte, Margaret’s eldest daughter and the city’s most coveted courtesan who begins to grapple with her position in both society and her immediate family.
Written by acclaimed playwright and screenwriter, Moira Buffini (Jane Eyre, Tamara Drewe) and based upon an original idea by Moira Buffini and Alison Newman
All three seasons are available to stream on Hulu now?
Are you sad to hear “Harlots“ won’t be returning for a new season?
Yes!!!! I am absolutely broken hearted that Harlots has been cancelled!!! It was such an amazing show and with all female producers and writers!!! So many fans including myself feel lost right now! Finally a feminist show that is multiracial with a very diverse cast, amazing plots and it gets canceled. I literally checked every week since last summer to see if it got renewed. Damn it!!!
Such a quality show, amazing actors really hope someone picks this show up...
It's sad to see this happen to such a great show. I hope another network picks this one up. Great actors...
