Max recently confirmed the cancellation of the hit comedy series The S*x Lives Of College Girls after three seasons, leaving fans surprised. The teen comedy-drama premiered in 2021 and finished airing its third season in January this year.
Justin Noble, who co-created the show along with Mindy Kaling, has now reacted to the development, revealing he is taken aback by the decision considering the series was consistently garnering good viewership numbers. Taking to social media shortly after the cancellation, Noble wrote:
“After seeing our show listed as the most watched or second most watched scripted show on the entire platform, for about 70 straight days, this is not the outcome that I saw coming.”
The S*x Lives Of College Girls creator reacts to the show’s cancellation
Justin Noble posted a statement on Instagram expressing his disappointment over The S*x Lives Of College Girls being canceled after three seasons by Max. The showrunner said he is proud of the series and the team is pitching it to other platforms so that it can get saved from cancellation:
“I think The Sex Lives Of College Girls is a pretty damn good TV show. Unfortunately, Max has decided not to order a fourth season. We are currently in discussions with some new potential homes for the show, and it's nice that there is so much interest.”
Noble added that nothing has been finalized with other platforms yet, so the show’s future remains uncertain. Highlighting how the world needs some good comedy shows at the moment, he wrote:
“I can't help but mention that it feels like there are fewer and fewer comedy series every month - and we are living in an era where we need that comedy badly, so I really hope that turns around.”
“But I will always be proud of this show for being the thing that we weren't seeing enough of: a hard comedy ensemble where ladies get the jokes.”
Noble went on to thank Mindy Kaling, the show’s cast and crew, Max, and fans for their support during the course of the show’s three seasons. The S*x Lives of College Girls tells the story of four girls who attend the fictional Essex College. They support each other in facing various challenges and troubles in their college lives.
The series stars Pauline Chalamet as Kimberly Finkle, Alyah Chanelle Scott as Whitney Chase, Amrit Kaur as Bela Malhotra, and Reneé Rapp as Leighton Murray. The supporting cast includes Christopher Meyer, Lauren "Lolo" Spencer, Renika Williams, Midori Francis, Mia Rodgers, and Gracie Lawrence.
The S*x Lives Of College Girls seasons 1 to 3 are available to stream on Max.
