Here and Now is over. Deadline reports HBO has cancelled the TV show after only one season.
From Alan Ball, the drama centers on a progressive white couple, Greg (Tim Robbins) and Audrey (Holly Hunter), and their multi-ethnic brood as well as a contemporary Muslim psychiatrist (Peter Macdissi). The cast also includes Jerrika Hinton, Daniel Zovatto, Raymond Lee, Sosie Bacon, Andy Bean, Joe Williamson, Avynn Crowder-Jones, Stephanie Arcila, and Erin Carufel.
Here and Now‘s cancellation is hardly a surprise. The HBO series suffered from low ratings during its 10-episode first season. Overall, it earned an average rating of .11 in the 18-49 demo and only 378,000 viewers.
What do you think? Have you seen Here and Now? Do you think it deserved a second chance?
I really wish HBO would reconsider putting Here and Now back on! It was terrific and the season before I loved Vinyl…WTH… please rethink . Both were great! I would compare Here and Now to a This is Us.
I just read that Hear and Now will not come back for season 2 , this is very disappointing this was a very good show, I really wish they would reconsider.
I just found this show by accident. It was a hidden gem. With all the noise lately, I found myself thinking about these characters and really wish it could finish the story. It has my attention now.
I loved every detail and storyline. Im really sad it was cancelled, i think HBO should really reconsider getting this show back on air.
Very sad – the low ratings and cancellation of a remarkable show like this is actually indicative of just how doomed our society is. The madness and hatred and stupidity permeating our present day world – which the show Here and Now so clearly references in both its characters’ statements and in the situations they encounter – are too far-reaching to overcome and too omni-present for the positive messages of a show like this to make any real difference. For every 1 person who is positively influenced to live their life free of hatred and bias, there are 100,000 others… Read more »

I am absolutely gutted! It’s a phenomenal series. I truly expected it to run through as many seasons as Six Feet Under (best drama series of all time). The cast is exceptional and the writing is so, so relevant and poignant for today’s society. C’mom HBO! What the hell are you thinking?! I’m completely captivated by it. Gosh, I hope they change their mind!
Yes it is! I loved that show! If I wasn’t home I recorded it! I can’t believe it!!! It’s nice to know that others feel the way I do!
