One of the most inventive series that began in 2020, Misha Green's "Lovecraft Country," could not get its renewal for Season 2.

Known for its unique blend of supernatural and periodical drama, HBO's empowering "Lovecraft Country" took pop culture by storm from its August release.

By the time the finale was published later that year in October, the premiere episode had crossed the 10M viewers mark but could not get its sequel under HBO.

The broadcasting company made a statement to Deadline, "We will not be moving forward with a second season of Lovecraft Country."

"We are grateful for the dedication and artistry of the gifted cast and crew, and to Misha Green, who crafted this groundbreaking series. And to the fans, thank you for joining us on this journey."

'Lovecraft Country' Got Cancelled Despite Being a Hit On HBO

Helped by solid word of mouth, the series grew its supporters, with the Season 1 finale hitting a series-high audience on HBO (1.5 million).

Other than that, the series became the most-watched new episode of an original series on HBO Max on its first day of availability.

Given that a novel inspired the first season, the decision not to renew is not entirely unexpected, recalling HBO used to accept second seasons for other shows based on books like "Big Little Lies."

Yet, the enthusiastic reception of the first season of "Lovecraft Country" did not automatically guarantee a renewal.

"Lovecraft Country" is based on Matt Ruff's novel, which starred by Jurnee Smollett and Jonathan Majors.

The first season of "Lovecraft Country" is available for streaming on HBO and HBO Max.
