These 6 female-led shows—including 'Minx'—were canceled before their time,
Last month, much to fans dismay, HBO canceled their popular series, Minx, about a young woman trying to start a feminist magazine . But as a person who watches way too much TV and loves the classic girl boss trope, I can tell you that I’m beginning to get used to saying goodbye to my favorite female-led shows way before their time.
Minx: Taking place in the ‘70s, the ambitious Joyce Prigger strives to create one of the first female-focused magazines with a feminist twist. With the financial support of Doug, a sleazy publisher , the idea changes to one of a feminist publication that will discuss issues surrounding women’s oppression, while also displaying full male nudity. When the new magazine, now titled Minx, is published, it grabs the attention of the community, in both positive and negative ways.
ABC canceled the show due to low ratings—it was airing up against Friends , Martin , and Mad About You during that time. Fans and critics were still stunned that My So-Called Life was canceled, and ABC made an effort to boost ratings by airing it on MTV. There was even a petition released by fans calling for season 2 to start production, but when the time came, Danes was no longer interested and had moved on to bigger roles, including starring in Romeo and Juliet .
The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina: This was one of the many shows that Netflix and other platforms canceled due to the pandemic. With only four seasons, referred to as “parts” by the show’s creator, actress Kiernan Shipka stars as Sabrina Spellman in this coming-of-age show adapted from the 1996-2003 series Sabrina The Teenage Witch in which she battles half angels, dark magic, and evil forces.
