    HBO Max has canceled Made for Love after two seasons, Variety reported on Friday.

    Based on the novel by Alissa Nutting, Made for Love follows Hazel Green (Cristin Milioti), who runs away from her 10-year marriage to billionaire Byron Gogol (Billy Magnussen) after she discovers her husband has implanted a monitoring chip in her brain that allows him to watch and track her at all times. The show also stars Ray Romano as Hazel's father Herbert, who lives in the desert with his "girlfriend," a sex doll named Diane.

    "We are tremendously grateful for the truly spectacular journey of these past two seasons, courtesy of Alissa Nutting, Christina Lee, Cristin, Billy, Ray and the entire Made for Love cast and creative team – especially Zelda the talking dolphin and everyone's favorite synthetic love interest, Diane," representatives for HBO Max said in a statement. "Like a Gogol chip, the series will always be on our minds."

    Made for Love's cancellation comes after HBO Max also announced the cancellation of Ridley Scott's Raised by Wolves.

    Season 1 and 2 of Made for Love are streaming on HBO Max.
