Why Duster With Josh Holloway Was Canceled

A lot of people are curious as to why the HBO Max show titled “Duster,” starring Josh Holloway, was canceled. This crime-thriller series, developed by J.J. Abrams and LaToya Morgan, is set in the Southwest in 1972. The story follows the FBI’s first Black woman agent as she teams up with a talented car thief. Unfortunately, despite wrapping up this season, HBO Max opted not to renew it for a second season, here’s why…

Why was Duster canceled before Season 2?

It is believed that HBO Max chose not to renew Duster for a second season because it did not attract enough viewers or generate sufficient audience interest.

Typically, numerous elements influence whether a show gets renewed, chief among them being audience response, ratings, and viewing figures. This latest series boasted an impressive 93% rating from critics and 85% approval from viewers on Rotten Tomatoes, but it wasn’t without obstacles. It was praised for its authentic portrayal of the 70s era, acting performances, music, costumes, and design. However, despite positive reviews, it struggled to maintain viewer interest or create the anticipated buzz, ultimately leading to its termination.

I’m thrilled to share that, as a devoted fan, I received news from HBO Max that our beloved series won’t progress beyond its initial season. Although it’s disappointing, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for the exceptional cast and crew who breathed life into this incredible show. Their dedication and passion will forever be etched in my mind as a fan.

HBO Max has decided not to produce a second season of the show ‘Duster’. However, we are incredibly appreciative for the opportunity to collaborate with the exceptionally talented creators J.J. Abrams and LaToya Morgan, as well as our partners at Bad Robot and Warner Bros. Television. We take great pride in this series starring Josh Holloway and Rachel Hilson, and we extend our gratitude to them, along with our cast and crew, for their outstanding collaboration and partnership.
