"The Premise" Canceled at FX on Hulu After One Season
B.J. Novak's "The Premise" will no longer be exploring the comedic absurdities of humanity and society. Sources confirm for TVLine that the long-MIA anthology series will not be returning for a second season. Hosted by Novak, "The Premise" — which streamed via FX on Hulu from Sept. 16, 2021 to Oct. 7, 2021 — tackled hard-hitting issues such as gun control, identity, social justice, sex, capitalism, revenge, love, fame and social media, all told through an off-kilter, philosophical lens.
