It’s official. There will be no second season of the Life Sentence TV show on The CW. Star Lucy Hale has confirmed the Life Sentence cancellation. Check out her statement, below. Last week, the series’ fate briefly echoed the journey of her character, Stella Abbott. After we reported Life Sentence was cancelled, creator Richard Keith informed us there was still life in the old gal yet, and that the cancellation or renewal decision would be made this week. Although the network has finally sounded the death knell, there is still some good news. There are six episodes left in season one, and the finale is scheduled for June 15th.
A CW Y/A series, Life Sentence stars Lucy Hale, Dylan Walsh, Gillian Vigman, Brooke Lyons, Carlos PenaVega, Jayson Blair, and Elliot Knight. The dramedy centers on Stella. After a lethal cancer diagnosis, she spent eight years living her life like any dying young woman might. Once she learns she’s been cured, Stella must return to living like someone with a whole life ahead of her and help her loved ones to do the same.

What do you think? Should The CW have cancelled or renewed its Life Sentence TV series for season two? Sound off in the comments.
I loved the show and wish to see more of the story.
Netflix should continue the story. It had better reach and many saw it that don’t use normal tv. (Could be the ratings) it’s well written and a good story line! I want to
See Stella find herself and the continuing of this well thought out show!
I don’t think this show should have ever been canceled. I hate that you left it so up in the air! I wish Netflix would swoop in and take it up.
This is absolute crap that they cancelled this show i really hope netflix buys it. Theres still so much that is needed to know. Please bring this show back
Estoy contigo, el programa de verdad te hace abrir los ojos muestra lo que es el verdadero sufrimiento de vivir tu vida contando las hora y lo valioso que debe ser demostrarle cariño a quienes estuvieron para ti sin saber si seguirias o no con vida. Quiero que vuelva la serie con una segunda temporada lo exijo.
