John Landgraf, the chairman of FX, says he canceled “Y: The Last Man” after just one season because “its audience decline was really, really, really steep.”
“One of the key things we assess — and we have assessed for as long as we’ve been doing this — is the trajectory of a television show across a season from its first to its last episode,” Landgraf said of the one-and-done FX on Hulu series.
“I really loved ‘Y: The Last Man’ personally…but I will tell you that its audience decline was really, really, really steep,” he added. “And ultimately that’s what made us go that direction.”
TheWrap reached out to FX to request a look at those audience declines, but we did not immediately hear back. The show only streamed on Hulu, which makes viewership numbers harder to come by.

The book is closing on Y: The Last Man for good.
Executive producer Eliza Clark took to social media recently to reveal that hopes of a pickup at a new outlet had been dashed.
“We tried really hard to get another platform to pick up Season 2 of Y. But sadly, it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen,” she wrote.
“It is always incredibly difficult to move a show, and in recent years, it has only gotten harder.
"So many of you have been so supportive of the show, and I am so grateful to you,” she continued.
“I love the group of artists who made Y truly, madly, deeply. It was the best creative work environment I’ve ever been a part of."
"I am immensely proud of the work that we did… I hope you will still watch the show. That you’ll still tell your friends to watch it.

For fans of Y: The Last Man, it’s truly the end of their world. Showrunner/EP Eliza Clark has posted that the dystopian drama hasn’t been able to find new distribution.
“For those of you who have been asking me: we tried really hard to get another platform to pick up season 2 of Y,” Clark wrote on Twitter. “But sadly, it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen. It is always incredibly difficult to move a show, and in recent years, it has only gotten harder.”
Y: The Last Man is a post-apocalyptic drama developed by Clark based on the comic book series of the same name by Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra.

LGBTQ+ representation means a lot to many different people.
Seeing themselves represented anywhere (especially mainstream media) usually changes lives.
Below, we compiled a list of some of the best LGBTQ+ representations on TV this past year.
These items are in no particular order!
Make sure to comment below to add your input!
The Morning Show
Bradley and Laura's LGBT subplot was legit and believable. Granted, the idea that unmarried people being outed in the press would constitute a scandal or a story that could be used for leverage is so 2013. That aspect was forced, for sure.
The amusing and ironic part of the Bradley/Laura thing, though, is Laura trying to convince Bradley to use her identity politics to get ahead in her career.
I don't imagine Apple+ planned that irony, but it wasn't lost on us. And the relationship between the two ended up being very sweet and hopeful.

In a statement, Clark wrote, “We have learned that we will not be moving forward with FX on Hulu for Season 2 of Y: The Last Man. I have never in my life been more committed to a story, and there is so much left to tell… We don’t want it to end.”
“FX has been an amazing partner. We have loved working with them, and we’re sad Y: The Last Man is not going forward at FX on Hulu.

Yorick may be the last human left alive with a Y chromosome, but he’s far from the only one suffering existential dread.
In Episode 6 of Y: The Last Man, Hero (Olivia Thirlby) continued spiraling due to the guilt she feels from accidentally killing her boss-turned-lover. Considering her alcoholic tendencies and strained relationships with her family (with whom she’s now estranged, thanks to the event), Hero’s purpose and place in this newfound danger-zone-of-a-world remained a big ol’ question mark, even after she and Sam were taken in by Roxanne, a former homicide detective running a safe haven for women.

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not watched the first three episodes of “Y: The Last Man,” streaming now on FX on Hulu.
In adapting Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra’s graphic novel series, “Y: The Last Man,” for television, showrunner Eliza Clark thought a lot about where she wanted her version of the story to go in order to determine where she needed it to begin. Ultimately, what she wanted was to depict an exploration of a wide variety of characters grappling with who they are now that loved ones, professions and identities have been stripped away.
Her version of “Y: The Last Man” starts with a little bit of the “before times” — before the extinction-level event that killed every living being with a Y chromosome except for one man and one monkey. In starting the show there, she was able to introduce the majority of...

FX’s adaptation of Brian K. Vaughn and Pia Guerra’s popular comic book series “Y: The Last Man” has been in development since 2015, shuffling through multiple changes behind-the-scenes along the way.
When the show finally does premiere on Monday on Hulu, it will be nearly 20 years since the first issue of the post-apocalyptic drama hit shelves. Among the biggest departures the TV series makes from the source material is from the premise laid out in the title.
“I think that the conversation about gender is more nuanced than the conversation than anything was about gender 20 years ago,” showrunner Eliza Clark told TheWrap. “I think we made clear early and often in the show that chromosomes are not equal to gender, and that there are still many men that survived this event.”

If “Y: The Last Man” were a Word document and you could track its changes, you’d barely be able to see the page for all the edits. The drama’s been in development for long enough to have gone through several showrunners and pilot directors, not to mention a slight network change (from FX to “FX on Hulu”). Now premiering two decades after Brian K. Vaughn first published the comic series that inspired it, TV’s “Y: The Last Man” takes obvious pains to imbue the story — about the aftermath of everyone on Earth with a Y chromosome suddenly dropping dead — with more nuance on sex and gender than its 2002 iteration. With so many transitions and considerations at play, it’s a wonder there’s anything to show for it at all, let alone anything as generally solid as what this version of “Y: The Last Man” offers up.

It’s no secret that Y: The Last Man took its sweet time in getting adapted. The story, first told in comic format from 2002 through 2008 by writer Brian K. Vaughan and illustrator Pia Guerra, was optioned to become a film as far back as 2007 with David Goyer producing.
The film project eventually developed into a TV pilot at FX in 2015. The show then ran into behind the scenes issues cycling through several producers and lead actors before settling upon Eliza Clark as showrunner and Ben Schnetzer as protagonist Yorick Brown. Now the sci-fi story about a virus that wipes out every man on Earth save for Yorick and his capuchin monkey Ampersand is finally seeing the light of day via FX on Hulu…amid a pandemic, no less!

Y: The Last Man makes it clear that gender identity exists beyond a male-female binary, giving the original comic series by Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra a modern update.
“Gender is diverse and chromosomes are not equal to gender. In the world of the television show every living mammal with a Y chromosome dies – that includes many women, it includes non-binary people, it includes intersex people,” showrunner Eliza Clark explained during the show’s TCA panel on Friday, “We are making a show that affirms that trans women are women, trans men are men, non-binary people are non-binary. That is part of the richness of of the world we get to play with.”
Based on Vaughn and Guerra’s DC Comics series of the same name, Y: The Last Man traverses a post-apocalyptic world in which a cataclysmic event decimates all but one cisgender male, Yorick Brown (Ben Schnetzer), and his pet monkey.

FX’s “Y: The Last Man” is set in a world where a cataclysmic event has decimated “every mammal with a Y chromosome but for one cisgender man and his pet monkey.” Though this means that people who were assigned the male gender at birth, but identify as women are killed as a result of this tragedy, the showrunner of the series, which is based on the fan-favorite comic book series by Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra, says “Y: The Last Man” is a project “that affirms that trans women are women, trans men are men, non-binary people are non-binary.”
“What was exciting about the book was it takes this kind of idea that a world that is filled with mostly women — and the book is definitely sort of more skewed toward the idea of a world of women — that it’s not necessarily just a paradise because women uphold systems of oppression,...

FX on Hulu’s adaptation of “Y: The Last Man” is setting out to ask questions about gender and identity and, perhaps even more deeply, what parts of a person’s identity has been imposed by society?
The show, based on the graphic novels of the same title, is set in a world where an extinction-level event wiped out all of the individuals with Y chromosomes — except for two: the titular man, Yorick (played by Ben Schnetzer), and his monkey.
“Yorick’s maleness is not what sets him apart in this world — it’s his Y chromosome that sets him apart,” showrunner Eliza Clark pointed out during the show’s Television Critics Assn. press tour panel on Aug. 13. “Gender is diverse and chromosomes are not equal to gender. And so, in our world — in the world of the television show — every living mammal with a Y chromosome dies. Tragically, that...

There’s a moment right around the midway point of Amazon Prime Video’s new crime drama, “Tell Me Your Secrets,” where two characters just scream into their phones. That’s how you’ll feel throughout the entire 10-episode run of the show — that what you’re watching is just a lot of screaming and crying with very little to show for it. This is weird, because the series is packed to bursting with storylines, all of which, on their own, could make a better series than the goulash equivalent we’re handed.
The overarching plot involves a woman named Karen Miller (Lily Rabe), who was arrested alongside her boyfriend, Kit (Xavier Samuel) for the murder of nine women. Miller was presumed to be an accessory to the crimes — thus, allegedly, explaining her jail time — but has claimed she doesn’t remember anything that happened. Mary Barlow (Amy Brenneman), who...

The opening moments of Tell Me Your Secrets, Amazon’s new thriller starring Lily Rabe (The Undoing) and Amy Brenneman (The Leftovers), set up everything you need to know about the series: Rabe’s Karen can’t remember whether or not she took part in murders perpetrated by her serial killer boyfriend, and Brenneman’s Mary refuses to believe that Karen doesn’t know something about the mysterious disappearance of her daughter, Theresa.
“Can you really not remember?” Mary asks, starting to cry as she sits on the visitors’ side of a plexiglass divider at the state prison. “Please tell me the truth.

By coming out as trans, Elliot Page has joined the ranks of transgender celebrities like Laverne Cox, Caitlyn Jenner, and Chaz Bono — the first three photos that appear after a Google search for “famous trans people.” Notably, only Bono is trans masculine in the group, and while he is a trailblazer who came out during a much different time, his story is lesser known by the young people who would most benefit from his example. As a trans masculine person, I wish I had grown up with a role model like Elliot Page, and I am so happy for all the kids who get to live in a world where he can, as he so eloquently wrote, “love who I am enough to pursue my authentic self.”
There are many reasons why trans feminine identities have been more visible in the years that have seen a steady growth in trans media representation,...

Timothy Hutton is no longer a part of the cast on FX’s long-gestating “Y: The Last Man,” the network confirmed on Wednesday.
Hutton’s exit comes as several cast members have been swapped now that the show is entering production. Olivia Thirlby has replaced Imogen Poots as Hero Brown, while Ashley Romans takes over the role of Agent 355 from Lashana Lynch.
Originally announced as a regular cast member, Hutton had been hired to play the President of the United States. Now, Paul Gross (“Due South”) has taken over the role, but it’s no longer as a series regular. (UPDATED: Variety has since learned that Hutton was only hired to star in the pilot, and that his character wasn’t expected to continue after that. In the “Y: The Last Man” graphic novel, the President dies early on.)
But Hutton’s departure also comes following a report, posted online in March by BuzzFeed News, that revealed a criminal complaint against the actor that had been filed with the Vancouver Police Department. In the report, Sera Johnston told the site that she was raped and assaulted by both Hutton...

There are two new cast changes on the project as Ashley Romans and Olivia Thirlby have joined the series, replacing originally cast Lashana Lynch and Imogen Poots, respectively. Romans will play Agent 355; Thirlby will play Hero Brown. In February, Ben Schnetzer was cast as the male lead Yorick Brown, replacing Barry Keoghan who had exited the projects.

If you're looking to watch more from the world of American Horror Story, you'll need to have a Hulu subscription.
The streaming service announced Monday that American Horror Stories will be exclusive to FX on Hulu, meaning that it will not be airing linearly on FX.
The spinoff is described as “a weekly anthology series from Ryan Murphy and will feature a different horror story each episode.”
The regular series is still considered an FX original, so it will continue on the regular cable channel, with episodes being uploaded on the streamer the next day.
An episode order has not been announced, or even a premiere date, but still, it's good to know more from the franchise will be released.
It's possible that the spinoff could entice more franchise vets back, because a one-episode role is way easier and working on a show for an entire season.

In 2018, Trace Lysette had become one of the most recognizable transgender actresses in Hollywood. That same year, she also lost her health insurance.
After multiple seasons on Amazon’s Emmy-winning “Transparent,” a stint on Caitlyn Jenner’s E! reality show “I Am Cait,” and one as a guest judge on “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” Lysette’s career was on fire. She recently appeared opposite Jennifer Lopez in the fall hit “Hustlers,” in a role many viewers may not have realized was played by a trans woman. (She’s the one telling her boyfriend she’ll give him some pussy after her shift.)
With more trans roles being written than ever before, it’s reasonable to assume that Lysette would be awash with new offers. In reality, she didn’t earn enough in 2018 to qualify for SAG’s relatively low minimum — between $17,000 and $33,000 during a base earnings period — to be eligible for health insurance.

Netflix is honoring Pride Month by partnering with GLAAD for “First Time I Saw Me,” a video series featuring transgender celebrities discussing media representation. Among the guests are “Sense8” star Jamie Clayton, Nick Adams, Jazz Jennings, Laure Jane Grace, Tiq Milan, Meredith Talusan, and “Shameless” actor Elliot Fletcher. “There weren’t a lot of characters that I super, super identified with,” Fletcher says in one of the videos.
One exception was Angel from “Rent,” whom Fletcher says was so cool just because she was so out there and authentic and so willing to just be totally herself no matter what. I really, really loved her. I still do, I have a tattoo on my leg of her name.”
Nick Adams, GLAAD’s Director of Transgender Media & Representation, explained the impetus for the series: “In the past few years, Hollywood has made an effort to create and cast transgender characters in a more authentic way,...

When it comes to seeing transgender people represented in TV and film, “Shameless” and “The Fosters” star Elliot Fletcher says that growing up, “there weren’t a lot of characters that I super, super identified with.”
As part of Pride Month, Netflix has teamed up with GLAAD for a video series titled “First Time I Saw Me,” featuring transgender celebrities speaking about the first time they saw themselves represented in the media. For Fletcher, that first time was Angel from “Rent.” “I thought she was so cool just because she was so out there and authentic and so willing to just be totally herself no matter what,” he says. “I really, really loved her. I still do, I have a tattoo on my leg of her name.”
