HBO Cancels Atlanta Filmed ‘Brothers in Atlanta’ After One Episode

Date:

HBO’s cancels Brothers in Atlanta after filming the TV pilot.

After producing a TV pilot and holding several open casting calls throughout Atlanta, Georgia several months ago, HBO has decided to pull the plug on ‘Brothers in Atlanta’.

The TV series was produced by SNL veteran Lorne Michaels. The series was created by Diallo Riddle and Bashir Salahuddin, centered around struggling entertainers and best friends trying to make it in Atlanta, Georgia.

After assessing our programming needs we talked to Bashir and Diallo and decided moving forward didn’t make sense for us at the time,” HBO said in a statement. “We feel they are immensely talented and we hope to work with them in the future.

Jaden Smith and Maya Rudolph were both attached to appear in the comedy, which was picked up to series in April. But, the show probably couldn’t compete with HBO’s robust line-up of comedy series including Silicon Valley, Girls, Veep, Togetherness, Ballers and Vice Principles. The network is also adding two new comedy series while letting go of Girls next year.

This is the second show to get canceled after HBO decided to cancel The Brink after having greenly a second season three months ago.
