But after defeat and defeat, she joins forces with a low-rent publisher, Doug (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm2159926\/?ref_=tt_cl_t_7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jake Johnson<\/a>), to create the first erotic magazine for women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the show was an absolute delight! The interaction with Joyce and Doug, as well as the rest of the cast, was so fantastic and hilarious! It was just SO GOOD! But what\u2019s even more heartbreaking about this cancellation is that it was actually renewed for a second season. But had a reversal. Not unlike what happened with ABC\u2019s STUMPTOWN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But more likely this is a result of the pledge to find $3B in savings by year\u2019s end by WBD CEO, David Zaslav. A pledge that has included cancelling the BATGIRL movie, cancelling WESTWORLD and THE NEVERS, as well as removing those shows, as well as MINX, from HBO Max. One can only assume so WBD doesn\u2019t have to pay residuals. But that\u2019s just speculation on my part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for where all of this leaves MINX?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, if you\u2019re a fan of the show, a lot like BATGIRL, the second season it was greenlit for is just about done filming. And Jake Johnson took to Instagram to pledge they are going to finish the season. Where it goes from there? Well one can only hope the showrunners can find the show a new home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what do you think about MINX\u2019s cancellation? Drop your thoughts on Fuzzybug\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/fuzzbug412\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook Page<\/a> today! Normally to end a write-up on a show, I\u2019d say something like, \u201c\u2026episodes now streaming on\u2026\u201d, but I guess I can\u2019t do that this time. Thanks Zaslav.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/minx_xlg.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"692\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/minx_xlg-692x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3455\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/minx_xlg-692x1024.jpg 692w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/minx_xlg-203x300.jpg 203w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/minx_xlg-768x1137.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/minx_xlg-800x1185.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/minx_xlg-600x888.jpg 600w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/minx_xlg.jpg 1013w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 692px) 100vw, 692px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve heard by now, but what seems to be in addition to mass cancellations at Warner Brothers Discovery and all its business units, but the HBO show, MINX has been cancelled at the network &amp; by extension, HBO Max.
