Amazon Cancels Two More First Season Shows Despite Previous Renewals

Amazon Prime Video Logo

Prime Video has been the home of some of the most talked-about streaming series of the summer so far, including Good Omens and The Summer I Turned Pretty. Unfortunately for Amazon Prime subscribers, however, the summer also has bad news for two shows that had already been renewed. Both A League of Their Own and The Peripheral have been cancelled, despite previously getting orders for second seasons. 

Both shows premiered back in 2022, and the cancellations come just shy of one year since their debuts last year. A League of Their Own got news of Season 2 as part of Amazon's renewal spree back in March, although with the news that the series would end after four episodes. THR now reports that all four of what would have been the final episodes were written before the beginning of the WGA writers strike in early May, and production company Sony Pictures Television will reportedly search for a new platform for Season 2. The series was inspired by the 1992 film of the same name.
