According to an exclusive by Deadline, the already abbreviated Season 2 of ‘A League of Their Own’ has been cancelled. The report goes on to say that the ongoing writers and actors strikes were cited as the reason for the cancellation.
Co-creator and star of the series Abbi Jacobson responded via her person Instagram following the news, saying “To blame this cancellation on the strike, (which is an essential fight for fair wages, protections and working conditions, etc…) is bullshit and cowardly.”
Jacobson then goes on to thank all those who worked on the show and watched the show, saying “I was lucky to make with so many incredibly talented artists and actors and writers and crew. A show I’m so proud of. Filled to the brim with stories worth telling. Full of so much heart and soul and value.”
