Renewals and Cancellations: 'From,' 'Tulsa King,' 'Moving,' 'A Good Girls Guide to Murder'

Big news for fans of MGM+’s From ahead of its third season finale: it’s been renewed for a fourth season. That means one of the most entertaining and frustrating viewing experiences gets another year to torture us. It also gives Amazon’s MGM what is likely its biggest television hit so far. However, they’d be wise to announce a final season—perhaps the fifth or sixth—lest we bail. There’s a decent chance this show does not stick the landing, and while we’re willing to watch one, two, or maybe three more seasons to find out, anything beyond that could spell trouble for From.

Our friend Amber Ruffin—we’re going to call her our friend because she retweeted us a few times—and her show with Roy Wood Jr. and Michael Ian Black, Have I Got News For You, is getting a second season on CNN. Fun side note: a screengrab of this site was featured on the show last weekend (whoever posted that to Facebook, thank you!).

This isn’t a renewal or cancellation, but it’s in the same ballpark: Fox has struck a deal with Hulu to continue carrying its primetime programming. This is probably only interesting to those who still watch Fox’s Sunday night lineup of animated series. To be honest, Bob’s Burgers is the only thing I still watch on Fox. Otherwise, it’s a wasteland of The Masked Singer and Gordon Ramsay shows.

I haven’t been able to watch It’s Florida, Man—the comedic dramatization of insane news stories out of Florida—on Max yet, but Tori has seen it and thinks it’s a blast. The show has been renewed for a second season. If you’re unfamiliar, it’s basically Drunk History, but with Florida Man stories.

Tori was also a big fan of Netflix’s animated Scott Pilgrim Takes Off and had a big crush on cartoon Ramona Flowers, but alas, that show has been canceled after one season.

I’m very excited to see that Netflix has picked up a second season of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder, as I found the first season very entertaining (and it inspired my daughters to pick up the books, turning them into big mystery fans). The co-production with BBC also stars Wednesday’s Emma Myers and seemed like a no-brainer. There are already a couple of other Holly Jackson books ready for adaptation.

I did not watch America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders on Netflix, but it was a big hit (and a click factory for Emma) and is now getting a second season.

I haven’t seen the South Korean sci-fi series Moving on Disney+, but it’s been a huge hit for the streamer—so much so that it’s one of the rare series these days outside the Star Wars or Marvel universe to get a second season.

Though it hasn’t been officially announced yet, a pay raise for Sylvester Stallone paves the way for a third and fourth season of the messy but wildly entertaining Tulsa King.

Finally, here are a few casting announcements of note: Storm Reid will not be returning for the third season of Euphoria. Meanwhile, in completely unrelated news, Suits star Gabriel Macht will recur as Harvey Specter in the first season of the spin-off Suits: LA, which premieres in February. And in news that mostly Jen Maravegias and I care about, Felicity’s Scott Foley will recur in the forthcoming season of Will Trent.
