This show was too good! Please go to another network. We need another season.
So bummed to hear this!! I binged the first season and I felt the message behind it resonates for minorities and what they go through in a business setting. Plus it was so good to see Hunter Parrish in a new project.
NOOOOOOOOOOIOOOOOOOIIIIIIOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRR
