After two acclaimed seasons, the series created by Misha Green and Joe Pokaski was deep-sixed by the now-Sinclair Broadcast Group controled WGN on May 30. The ax fell less than three weeks after the Season 2 finale of the series starring Jurnee Smollett-Bell, Aldis Hodge and Aisha Hinds, and two days after Sinclair announced it intended to buy WGN’s parent company Tribune Media for $3.9 billion in cash and stock, plus the assumption of $2.7 billion in debt.
