HBO not renewing 'Tell Me You Love Me'
Creator said she couldn't find show's direction
By Nellie Andreeva
HBO has opted not to renew racy drama "Tell Me You Love Me" for a
second season.
The decision was made almost a year after the ***ually explicit series
premiered on the pay cable channel.
"Given the considerable amount of time that has passed and despite the
best efforts of everyone involved, we were unable to find the
direction of the show for the second season," "Tell Me You Love Me"
creator/executive producer Cynthia Mort said in a statement. "There
are so many other stories to tell and many other ways to tell them. I
look forward to doing that with HBO in the future."
"Tell Me You Love Me," a look at marriage through the stories of
couples in therapy, drew a lot of attention with its ***ually graphic
content.
"We really feel Cynthia has an im****tant voice that belongs on HBO and
we look forward to the next show she will create for us," HBO's West
Coast president Michael Lombardo said.
HBO's other psychiatry-themed drama, "In Treatment," was recently
picked up for a second season.
