The year 2025 has been a tough one for fans of TV shows, with some of our favorite series facing cancellation. One such show was “Girls5eva,” which initially premiered on Peacock in 2021. The musical comedy followed four women who were part of a girl group and reunited later in life to try to find success in the music industry once again. After being saved from cancellation by Netflix, the show was ultimately not renewed beyond its third season.
The main cast of “Girls5eva” included Sara Bareilles, Busy Philipps, Paula Pell, and Renée Elise Goldsberry. Following the show’s second cancellation, Busy Philipps took to Instagram to express her gratitude for the show and her co-stars, referring to them as her “sisters5eva.” She also thanked Netflix for giving them the opportunity to continue singing together and reflected on the joy the show brought her during a difficult time in her life.
Another show that faced cancellation in 2025 was Apple TV+’s “Sunny,” starring Rashida Jones. The series, based on the novel “The Dark Manual,” followed an American woman living in Japan who receives a domestic robot after her husband and son disappear in a plane crash. Jones expressed her disappointment at the lack of awareness surrounding the show but praised Apple for their quality programming and the decision to release episodes weekly.
Jones also hinted at unanswered questions in “Sunny,” suggesting that the show was designed to leave viewers wanting more and eager to see how the story unfolds. Despite the cancellation, she remained hopeful that the audience would find satisfaction in the series.
As we look ahead to the rest of 2025 and into 2026, it’s clear that the landscape of television is constantly evolving. While some shows may face cancellation, new opportunities for storytelling and entertainment are always on the horizon. Stay tuned to see what the future holds for your favorite TV shows and discover new series that may become your next obsession.
