It looks like OWN has fallen out of love. Deadline reports the network has cancelled Love Is ___ after only one season.
From Mara Brock Akil and Salim Akil, the romantic drama explores how a modern “power couple” in “Black Hollywood” balances their professional, personal, and family lives. The cast includes Michele Weaver, Will Catlett, Idara Victor, Tyrone Brown, Kadeem Hardison, Yootha Wong-Loi-Sing, and Lana Young.
According to Deadline, OWN has cancelled Love Is ___ amid allegations of domestic violence against executive producer Salim Akil. The series’ first season earned fair ratings for a cable drama, averaging a .26 in the 18-49 demo and 903,000 viewers.
From OWN:
OWN has decided not to move forward with the second season of Love Is _ . The TV memoir was inspired by the real-life love story of married producers Mara Brock Akil and Salim Akil.”
