Vida deserves to find a new home after cancelation: Starz wasn't the right fit
-
Tanya Saracho’s trailblazing series offering LGBTQ and Latinx representation is ending with Season 3, but Saracho clearly wants to explore her characters further. "While Starz is to be commended for shepherding the series into existence, the premium network was likely never the right fit for a witchy, queer, Latinx series," says Jude Dry. "One of the network’s most popular shows is Outlander, a huge hit with thirsty moms of all stripes. The audience for Vida — LGBTQ folks, people of color, and women — are far less likely to have the resources to subscribe to a premium network like Starz."
