‘Generation’ series canceled after one season at HBO Max

HBO Max has selected not to order a second period of the Lena Dunham-produced dramedy series Generation (official title style Genera+ion).

Made by Zelda Barnz and her dad Daniel Barnz, who additionally directed, Generation was the principal HBO Max pilot to go to series. Its 16-scene first season debuted on March 11 and ran in two sections, wrapping its run on July 8. The half-hour show follows a gathering of secondary school understudies whose investigation of current sexuality (gadgets and all) tests profoundly dug in convictions about existence, love and the idea of family in their conservative community.

“We will not be moving forward with a second season of Genera+ion,” HBO Max said in a statement. “We are very proud to have partnered with Zelda and Daniel Barnz to faithfully and authentically represent LGBTQ youth with such a diverse group of characters and layered stories. We thank them and our wonderfully gifted cast for all their hard work and collaboration.”

Age’s group cast included Nathanya Alexander, Chloe East, Nava Mau, Lukita Maxwell, Haley Sanchez, Uly Schlesinger, Sam Trammell, Chase Sui Wonders with Justice Smith and Martha Plimpton.

Dunham executive produced with Zelda, Daniel and Ben Barnz. Marissa Diaz was a producer.
