Even though Stella survived cancer, her show
Life Sentence will not live to see a second season. Lucy Hale broke the news on Twitter today, “I was emotionally attached to this story and to everyone involved so I am a little shell shocked right now, but I feel fortunate that we got to tell a really beautiful story.”
It really is a beautiful story that, like her, I wish could have continued. Sadly though, people were not watching this heartwarming family drama. That is what made this show so wonderful, it was about a family who truly loved each other during the good times and the bad ones. I guess people would rather watch the murder of the week, than a well-written heartfelt drama. Their loss and ours too.
At least we have a few more episodes, Fridays at 9p, to enjoy before it goes to TV heaven
UPDATE: The CW has also cancelled the military drama Valor after one short season.
