As the months-long Writers’ Guild walkout appears to be nearing its conclusion, Starz has canceled four original series on its network – including one that had yet to air- presumably in an effort to prepare for the inevitable shakeup that will follow the strike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the canceled was a wrestling drama titled Heels<\/em>, comedy Run the World<\/em>, and dramedy Blindspotting<\/em> – all of whom\u00a0have\u00a0recently completed their second seasons. Furthermore, the drama The Venery of Samantha Bird <\/em>isn’t going to resume shooting after it was halted in the middle of its first season due to the\u00a0WGA strike beginning\u00a0in May.<\/p>\n\n\n

The outgoing series had no shortage of star power. Heels<\/em> (featuring Stephen Amell) was written by former Loki<\/em> head writer Michael Waldron, Run the World<\/em> was produced by Yvette Lee Bowser, and Blindspotting<\/em> was co-created by Daveed Diggs. Samantha Bird’s Venery<\/em> was set to star 13 Reasons Why<\/em> alum Katherine Langford.<\/p>\n\n\n

What are a few previous yet recent programs that have gotten axed by Starz?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dropping four programs at once is not a\u00a0a significant step for the cable network. Starz recently announced the end of long-running blockbuster Outlander<\/em>, leaving the channel and its sibling streaming service mostly reliant on Power <\/em>spinoffs and a few of other shows like horror comedy Shining Vale.<\/em> (Staying with spin-offs, Starz has greenlit a 10-episode prequel series, Outlander: Blood of My Blood,<\/em> from the original’s executive producers.) <\/p>\n\n\n
