Twitter, on late Friday, lit up with a bit of news few were expecting. Not a rare occurrence these days, given that there were no reports about a Covid-19 vaccine trial. It was something else. The streaming service Hulu cancelled Zoe Kravitz starrer High Fidelity after season one.
The streaming service Hulu launched High Fidelity on February 14. After the lockdown hit in early March, the series became something of a lifeline. The show is the adaptation of Nick Hornby’s book and the John Cusack movie of the same name. It’s about a bunch of Brooklyn music nerds who spent a lot of time hanging out. Kravitz plays the role of Rob who is a pop culture-obsessed owner of a record store.
During the lockdown, the series seemed to be from an alternate timeline where impromptu meetups at dive bars were still happening. However, the cancellation of High Fidelity wasn’t big news, it stung hard and harder for Kravitz, who took to Instagram to take a jibe at the streaming service Hulu. She expressed her anguish saying that the streaming service lacks having much diversity in its programming slate.
