“The Other Two” has been cancelled – I feel relief

I will always love, love, love the first season of The Other Two. The second season I liked just fine as it still had laugh out loud episodes like the one with guest stars Noah Galvin and Tuc Watkins as lovers posing as father and son for a talk show appearance. Hilarious!

But the third season has not only been unfunny, it has lost its heart and not given us any reason to root for the leads. So the news today that the show has been cancelled is mostly a relief although I will truly miss Drew Tarver as Cary.

TV Line reports: We’ve got bad news for fans of The Other Two: Thursday’s third season finale will now serve as the comedy’s series finale.

“It is bittersweet to say goodbye to the Dubek family after three seasons, but we always knew, both creatively and personally, that this was where we wanted to end their stories,” co-showrunners Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider said in a joint statement. “And because we are quite literally out of ways to humiliate Drew Tarver, so what’s the point?”

The statement continues: “We are deeply grateful to everyone (gays) who watched the show, to Max for giving us a second home and life, and to our writers, producers and crew, who gave so much of their time, talent, and passion to this show over the last 45ish years. And finally, an enormous thank you to Heléne, Drew, Molly, Case, Wanda, Josh, Brandon, and everyone in our brilliant cast (except Ken) who all made this show better than it had any right to be, and who we will miss terribly (especially Ken). Long live ChaseDreams. #chasedreams #globsaregay #feet.”
