Generally speaking, The CW’s most successful TV series, in terms of Nielsen ratings, are its DC Comics-inspired programs, paranormal fare like Supernatural, and YA dramas like Riverdale. Now the littlest network is angling for dramedy fans with the new Life Sentence TV show. What’s its life expectancy? Will Life Sentence be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
From creators Erin Cardillo and Richard Keith, Life Sentence stars Lucy Hale, Dylan Walsh, Gillian Vigman, Brooke Lyons, Carlos PenaVega, Jayson Blair, and Elliot Knight. The CW TV series centers on Stella Abbott (Hale). After a lethal cancer diagnosis, Stella spent eight years living her life like any dying young woman might. She did things like face her fears, travel the world, and even married a stranger on a whim. After 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. **Status update, below.

Such an amazing show, so sad to see it go. Really hope that it will come back. Maybe Netflix will pick it up as a Netflix original show!!!
I just watched it on Netflix. What a shame they canceled it. The story line is strong and many places to go with it. I love all the characters. Strong cast. I really hope Netflix or Hulu or someone picks it up. I think the show was miss placed being on CW. CW is all fantasy. Not real story plots (why I don’t watch any CW anymore). Please bring it back!!!
I just finished watching this show on Netflix and it is so addictive. I’m so sad the CW won’t be renewing it. Hopefully Netflix or Hulu will pick it up for season 2. I must know what happens next!!!
I want to know what happens next in Stella’s life adventure!!! Life Sentence is a phenomenal show and I’m disappointed it’s gone. I looked forward to it every week.

I was not sure if I was going to like the show but after watching a few episodes I really ended up loving the series. I hope that it comes back for a second season. I would love to see how things all wrap up in the end.
