What’s This TV Show About?

A Paramount Network black comedy anthology series, Heathers stars Grace Victoria Cox, James Scully, Melanie Field, Brendan Scannell, Jasmine Mathews, Drew Droege, Jesse Leigh, Romel De Silva, Deanna Cheng, Adwin Brown, Cameron Gellman, and Brett Cooper. Guest stars in the first season include Shannen Doherty, Selma Blair, and Casey Wilson. Based on the 1988 film starting Winona Ryder and Christian Slater, the story centers on Veronica Sawyer (Cox), the “Heathers” who rule the popular clique at Westerburg High School (Field, Scannell, and Matthews), and Veronica’s boyfriend, JD Dean (Scully). JD gives a whole new meaning to having a dark side and makes it clear no one is safe from his appetite for destruction, including Veronica.

Telly’s Take

Will Paramount Network cancel or renew Heathers for season two? I think it is a goner. Because its content is focused on a school slaughter, given the epidemic of gun massacres at US schools, the network twice delayed its premiere and even tried to unload it to another channel. When it couldn’t find a buyer, Paramount decide to air it, but only after editing out some scenes and reducing the episode count to nine. They then pulled two episodes following another mass shooting. I suspect they wanted to make back what money they could and that they’ll move on without a second season of what was originally intended to be an anthology series. I’ll update this page with any new information. Subscribe for free Heathers cancellation or renewal alerts.
