According to ComicBook, Showtime has decided to cancel their plans for creating a season two of Uncoupled. The series was recently picked up by Showtime after it was dropped from Netflix after one season.

According to ComicBook, Showtime spent months attempting to redevelop their show to fit their brand with scripts for new episodes being completed. However, due to the writers and actors strikes, the series was delayed with development officially being scrapped.

According to mxdwn, the series was about Michael Lawson (Neil Patrick Harris (Doogie Howser, M.D., How I Met Your Mother), a New York City real estate broker who, when his longtime boyfriend, played by Tuc Watkins (The Mummy, One Life to Live), moves out, must face the prospect of starting over — and dating again — in his 40s.The cast featured Emerson Brooks (The Last Ship, MacGyver), Tisha Campbell (Martin, My Wife and Kids), Brooks Ashmanskas (Julie & Julia, The Good Wife), and Academy Award winner Marcia Gay Harden (Mystic River, Pollock). The drama was created by Darren Star (Sex and the City, Emily in Paris) and Jeffrey Richman (Modern Family, Frasier).

According to ComicBook, in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Star said, “Certainly a lot of gay men watch Sex and the City and related to those characters. And I think by the same way women, straight men are going to watch these characters and hopefully relate to their emotional experiences and find that they’re not different from their own. We wanted the show to feel very universal, wanted it to be a human story that would appeal to a very wide audience because everyone at a certain point has experienced being on either side of a breakup.”

“And we also knew several real long-term gay couples where this very specific implosion of their relationship happened,” Richman added. “I know a lot of Michaels that were blindsided like this. That’s not been my personal experience, but certainly I’ve been broken up with and I have broken relationships, but there’s also a part of your imagination … Where would you go if that happened, how would I go on? How would I wake up in the morning? Then you’re talking to somebody who it really happened to, and they tell you how they did it. They walk into a closet at work and just cry, but they go to work every day. Life doesn’t just stop when a thing like that happens.”

Season one of Uncoupled is currently available to stream on Showtime platforms.
