It is one-and-done for Black Cake. Hulu has cancelled the drama series after one season on the streaming service. Created by Marissa Jo Cerar, the eight-episode first season debuted in November and finished in December 2023.

Mia Isaac, Adrienne Warren, Chipo Chung, Ashley Thomas, Lashay Anderson, Faith Alabi, and Glynn Turman star in the series based on Charmaine Wilkerson’s novel. The drama tells the story of a woman whose family discovers her secrets after she dies.

No reason was given for the show’s cancellation, but viewership numbers likely played a role. According to Deadline, the series scored 94% on Rotten Tomatoes. Netflix had expressed interest in picking up the series for a second season, but a deal did not happen.
