Netflix cancels 'A Break with Michelle Wolf' and 'The Joel McHale Show'

The cancellation of 'The Break with Michelle Wolf' and 'The Joel McHale Show' shows that Netflix is still finding its way through the comedy content maze
PUBLISHED AUG 18, 2018

In spite of pushing all the political buttons, 'The Break with Michelle Wolf' could not make the cut for a second season with Netflix. Starring Michelle Wolf, the show premiered on Netflix in May this year. The series is executive produced by Wolf, Dan Powell, Christine Nangle, and Daniel Bodansky. Powell and Nangle also act as showrunners for the series. 

At the time of its debut, 'The Break with Michelle Wolf' was much talked about, especially after Wolf's savage set at the White House Correspondents Dinner in April. The show was initially meant to "take a break from the seriousness of late-night comedy".
