Howie Mandel, Simon Cowell and Sofia Vergara from "America's Got Talent" This week's Best bets By Dana Simpson TV Media Done with deadly dames: Despite an announcement to the contrary late last year, it seems that ViacomCBS's streaming ser- vice, Paramount+, has decided to pull the plug on a fan-favorite show. "Why Women Kill," the most recent campy crime soap from "Desperate Housewives" creator Marc Cherry, has been canceled following its renewal announcement in December 2021. In an announcement made to online entertainment news mag- azine Variety.com, a spokesper- son for the streamer formerly known as CBS All Access said, "Paramount+ has made the diffi- cult decision not to move for- ward with Season 3 of 'Why Women Kill,'" and offered thanks to its "partners at CBS Studios and Imagine Television Studios, the amazing creator and show- runner Marc Cherry and the incredible writers, cast and crew for two memorable seasons." Not only did the abrupt post- renewal cancelation shock many fans of the show who were excit- ed for more of Cherry's murder- ous women, but Paramount+ also has yet to offer a reason for the cancelation (as of writing). Unfortunately, "Why Women Kill" now joins the TV graveyard home to several other female- fronted series. Netflix's "GLOW" experienced a similar renewed-to-be-canceled situation ahead of its fourth sea- son, but the popular streaming platform cited pandemic restric- tions as a reason not to proceed with the series in October 2020. It remains canceled despite eas- ing restrictions. NBC's "Good Girls" also met a similar fate — this time citing poor ratings in its most recent season — and ended abruptly, on a cliffhanger, in its Season 4 finale. It is joined by Netflix's "Julie and the Phantoms" (axed after one season), Hulu's "Dollface" and Netflix's "Baby- Sitter's Club" (both canceled after two seasons, like "Why Women Kill"). Done with deadly dames: Paramount+ backs out of Season 3 of 'Why Women Kill' Kerry O'Malley and Allison Tolman in "Why Women Kill" Stars on Screen A/Graybeals Carpet Plus BCD/Pulaski Memorial 6 x 5"
