Not to be confused with the AppleTV+ movie
I stumbled upon this after it popped up in my recommended list on Prime. Was invested immediately. I love punk and the character of Henry Mallet felt so real, without being over an over-the-top caricature of what a punk rock star should look/act like. The flash back scenes of the band onstage were perfect. Henry & Suzy’s story was unusual and original, I absolutely loved them. The actors had such great chemistry. But 2 seasons? From what little information out there about the show, it was well received, had high viewership, and won a bunch of awards. What happened? There is very little in the Trivia section on IMDB, and only a very short write up on Wikipedia. Why was it canceled? And the final scene of the final episode left me heartbroken. I’ve had favorite shows canceled before their time, but I have never been so upset to find that there was no season 3.
