Although Bravo, VH1 and MTV remain hubs for some of the best reality TV shows, streaming services have been getting in on that corner of entertainment as well. Hulu is such a platform, as it currently offers titles like Living for the Dead and Vanderpump Villa. What’s arguably its most popular series within this genre is The Kardashians, which has been streaming on the service since its debut in 2022. By all accounts, the show is still going strong after several seasons. On the other side of that equation though, another reality-based production on the platform was just axed, and I thought it would’ve been popular enough to fend off a cancellation.
The title that was on the chopping block was none other than The D’Amelio Show, which ran for three seasons on Hule (one of the best streaming services). It was Deadline that broke the news of the series’ demise and a reason for the decision was not specified. The show, which premiered in 2021, served as a vehicle for TikTok stars and sisters Charli and Dixie D’Amelio. Via the show, the two – along with parents Heidi and Marc D’Amelio provide viewers with an intimate look into their home life. 28 episodes were produced over the course of the three seasons, and a formal reason for the cancellation was not provided.
It’s honestly somewhat odd to think that the show is over, especially given how much heat it’s seemingly had over the past few years. By the time it was picked up, the D’Amelios were already amongst some of the most well-known (and heavily followed) personalities on social media. As the trade notes, the family has 255 million followers on TikTok at this point. Not only that, but their reality TV production appeared to earn a solid amount of buzz during its run. But, alas, we don’t know the exact numbers, and it’s possible that the series ultimately didn’t meet Hulu’s expectations. Also, it’s worth mentioning that this may not be completely chalked up to a lack of popularity.
