Underground is Canceled.

I love that show. John Legend tweeted that he hopes to find a new network. Ugh, the show is so well done. I will def be sad if I can't see more of this show.

I saw that.

Hopefully netflix or hulu or Oprah will pick it up.

What?? Nooooooo!

So what do you think the chances are of Underground being picked up by another network? I finally finished Queen Sugar and was thinking about starting this. But if I am never going to get closure, I don't know if I should bother. I just read an article about how they couldn't come to a deal with BET, but this was before it was cancelled.

I clicked on this board by accident, but just saw an article where Oprah said the show was too expensive for her, something around $5 million an episode, probably bc it's a period piece. 

This isn't the story I saw, but it says the same thing:
