Minx Canceled for Second Time, Ends After 2 Seasons

After Starz rescued the show from cancelation at Max, Minx has been canceled at its current home after one season at Starz and two seasons in total.

Variety has reported that the second season of Minx, which premiered last July, will be the last. The outlet notes that, despite the series being met with widely positive reception, it struggled to garner a large audience while airing on Starz, though streaming viewership data for the show is not publicly available.

Minx starred Ophelia Lovibond as Joyce and Jake Johnson as Doug Renetti. The Season 2 cast also included Idara Victor as Tina, Jessica Lowe as Bambi, Lennon Parham as Shelly Oscar Montoya as Richie, and Elizabeth Perkins as Constance.

What was Minx about?

“After Doug and Joyce sell Bottom Dollar to a retired shipping magnate with unlimited money and power, Minx becomes a commercial success, bringing more money, more fame, and more temptations,” reads the second season’s official synopsis. “Under new leadership, Doug struggles to find his footing and maintain his control within Bottom Dollar. Meanwhile, Joyce begins to lose sight of her core beliefs as she gets caught up in her rise to stardom. As our Bottom Dollar misfits go mainstream, they start to question who they’re becoming and what they really want from this newfound success.”
