HBO Max Cancels 'Duster' After One Season

HBO Max canceled the crime drama series 'Duster' after one season, despite positive critic and viewer ratings, due to low viewer interest and failure to secure a second season. The show, created by J.J. Abrams and LaToya Morgan, starred Josh Holloway and Rachel Hilson and was set in the 1970s, focusing on a Black female FBI agent and a getaway driver. The cancellation leaves HBO Max with only one original series, 'The Pitt,' while 'Duster' was quietly shopped to other platforms without success.
