The show has so much potential

She's gotta have it, but apparently, Netflix does not. The streaming giant has canceled the Spike Lee series She's Gotta Have It after two seasons, according to Variety.

A modernized take on Lee's 1986 film of the same name, the series offered a fresh take on Black women's sexuality through its protagonist, Nola Darling. Played by DeWanda Wise, Nola is a visual artist and a"sex-positive, polyamorous, pansexual." The first season focused on her attempts at balancing her lovers while processing the demands of patriarchy and misogyny. It was met with mostly positive reviews.

Netflix isn't known to give shows third chances to get it right or find their footing. She's Gotta Have It has now gone the way of The Get Down, Sense8, Marvel's Iron Fist, Luke Cage, and The Punisher, who were all axed after two seasons. Lee's first foray into episodic storytelling was in no way perfect, but there was still so much potential there.

Can We Talk About That Sex Scene In 'She's Gotta Have It'? Black women having sex makes some people uncomfortable I'm not a Taylor Swift fan, and that's putting it nicely. So all of the fuss about the new Cats movie that she's starring in has been intentionally off of my radar.Co-captain of US women's national soccer team and queen of fire hair looks Megan Rapinoe has to keep up with that purple mane just like the rest of us colored-hair folk. Maintaining hair that vivid can be difficult, to say the least, but not impossible—especially when you have a good colorist.
