"Disney+ Axes 'American Born Chinese' After Its Inaugural Season"

Disney+ has canceled the series "American Born Chinese" after one season despite favorable reviews, with a 94% critic score and an 82% viewer rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The show, based on a graphic novel and featuring stars like Michelle Yeoh and Daniel Wu, struggled to attract viewers. Producers plan to shop the series elsewhere as Disney continues to face challenges in establishing non-Marvel and non-Star Wars scripted originals. The cancellation is part of a broader trend of cost-cutting across streaming services.
