*The Netflix gay comedy “Uncoupled” has been canceled after one season.
The series starred Neil Patrick Harris as a real estate agent whose life seemingly falls apart when his partner of almost 20 years dumps him. Tisha Campbell also starred as Michael’s business partner, Suzanne.
“Michael Lawson (Neil Patrick Harris) seems to have it all figured out. He’s a successful New York City real estate agent with a great career, a supportive family, close friends, and a loving relationship with his partner of 17 years, Colin (Tuc Watkins). But when Colin unexpectedly moves out on the eve of his 50th birthday, Michael is completely blindsided,” the show’s description read, The Advocate reports. “Overnight, he has to confront two nightmares: losing the man he thought was his soulmate, and suddenly finding himself a single gay man in his mid-forties in New York City.”
The series was created by “Sex and the City’s” Darren Star and Jeffrey Richman. As SandraRose.com reports, the final episode of season one “ends with Michael leaving a party and arriving home only to find Colin waiting for him. Colin tells Michael he may have made a mistake,” the outlet writes.

“I’m so glad that I’m doing a show like this now because I was less concerned and conscientious than I probably would’ve been 10, even five years ago,” Harris told Out last year. “… I was glad that I wasn’t just the punch line of the joke when I was in bed with some 28-year-old hot guy.”
The queer community failed to support “Uncoupled,” as the rating for season one were abysmal, Variety reports. Netflix has decided to pull the plug on season two.
