BBC announced on Tuesday that “The Hour” has been canceled.
The period drama, which often drew comparisons to “Mad Men,” ran for two seasons and saw a large dip in ratings in its second season. In the UK, the Season 1 premiere brought in 2.9 million viewers and the Season 2 premiere didn’t even match half of that with 1.3 million viewers, according to Broadcast.
“The Hour” followed a group of reporters in the 1950s, working at the BBC’s titular fictional news program and earned a lot of critical acclaim, including BAFTA, Emmy and Golden Globe nominations.
