Run the World has stopped running. Starz has cancelled the female-led comedy series after two seasons and 16 episodes, per Variety.
Starring Amber Stevens West, Bresha Webb, Corbin Reid, Stephen Bishop, Tosin Morohunfola, Erika Alexander, Nick Sagar, Jay Walker, and Tonya Pinkins, the Starz series follows four female best friends as they live in Harlem, lean on each other, and deal with the ups and downs of their personal and professional lives.
Leigh Davenport created the comedy series, with Rachelle Williams-BenAry joining the series as showrunner for season two. Run the World debuted in May 2021, and the second season launched on the cable channel in May of this year. The de facto series finale aired in July.
What do you think? Did you watch Run the World? Were you hoping Starz would renew this comedy series for a third season?
I thought the series to be quite entertaining, in life friends leave, so Ella, left the others were just as good without her. People make decisions in their lives. shouldn’t impact others . The show was good. Bring it back , please
Please bring Run the World back. It was a very interesting show watching successful black women navigate through life and love.
Stop killing our shows. Please bring it back. We need season 3.
Notes
Run The world was a good series but lost something when one cast member didn’t return. It made the show less interesting. I want it to return with all original cast members. The one that left was the most intriguing, smart, beautiful and fashionable cast member. She brought the stunningly Afrocentric warmth and beauty to the show. Bring her back.
I can’t believe this!!! This was a great show. I hope it gets picked up by another network. Run the world was a great show this is really sad.
This was a great show with great actors. It was funny and well-written.
Can’t believe they discontinued this show. I really enjoyed it…..
Please bring back Run the World — I love this show!!!
You CANNOT cancel this show!
Please bring back this show- Run the world I can’t believe it was cancelled
I love that show. Hopefully someone other network will pick it up!
I loved the show and thought season 2 was even better than the first. I loved the direction the storyline was going. Im disappointed to see it go.
Run The World was an amazing and phenomenal show! I truly loved it!
It was real, encouraging, inspiring and motivational. It was very relatable to me as an African American Black young professional female. Please reconsider bringing it back for a 3rd season and more to come! It was also very positive and constructive. Our communities need these kind of shows.
I was a fan of this show. I hate to see it go! The writing and acting was phenomenal. Maybe another network will pick it up.
I really hope so because I really love it . Maybe Tyler Perry needs to add. It to his network and keeps the same team& casting
Love Run the World! I do hate Ella McFair was not on it I do think her absence hurt the show. I hope another network can pick it up and bring Ella McFair back!
I am disappointed to learn this show has been canceled. I started watching the series this year and it has been a delight watching the African American women on screen. I hope the network reconsiders sometime in the near future.
