Showtime just revealed that American Gigolo was canceled after the first season, bringing the interesting storyline to an end. The Jon Bernthal star has become one of the first shows to face a merger following the unexpected merger of Showtime and Paramount+, something the CW shows are all too familiar with.
The merger resulted in a change of opinion and tactics, culminating in the cancellation of two other series. Let the Right One In and Three Women suffer the same fate as American Gigolo, although the latter two may find new homes on a different network. This reimagining of Paul Schrader’s prostitution classic could face bigger challenges than its fellow canceled series, given the first season’s dismal ratings and reaction. of critics.
More about American Gigolo
It would be incorrect to assume that American Gigolo was no longer interesting in its heyday. It can never match the high standards set by the original films, written by one of the best films in the New Hollywood era, but it only lacks conviction in the first season. We can’t guarantee that the series will improve, but as it is, it never stands a chance.
It was even more frustrating because the series had a tough pre-production process. It came to light in 2016, but it didn’t materialize until years later, thanks to a new producer, David Hollander, who has worked on shows like Ray Donovan. This is far from the conclusion of the story. After Hollander was fired for misconduct, the new host, David Bar Katz, also quit shortly after the start of the season. After careful consideration, it was awarded to Nikki Toscano and Russell Rothberg. The tragic story of American Gigolo continues since the sitcom will most likely never be seen again.
Summary of the series stated:
“Julian Kaye, a former gigolo exonerated after 15 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit, faces difficulty picking up debris while the detective who kept him behind bars tries to trying to solve the mystery that led to his imprisonment. Julian tries to reconcile his escort background with his current man by reuniting with his ex Michelle, his difficult mother, and other sex workers. He is searching for the truth about the frame that sent him to prison years ago, and he hopes to be reunited with his one true love, Michelle.”
Gretchen Mol, Lizzie Brocheré, Gabriel LaBelle, Leland Orser and Rosie O’Donnell appear in the series. Showtime released American Gigolo.
