Report: Clone High Reboot Canceled After Two Seasons By MAX
Well I guess Chris McCarthy being in the writers room wasn’t a good idea after all?
In a new report from TV Line, it has been reported that MAX’s revival of former MTV series Clone High will NOT be getting a third (or fourth if you’re counting the OG series) season order.
A modern refresh of the hit series of the same name, CLONE HIGH follows a high school for clones of the greatest minds in history. Twenty years after the original experiment was put on ice, Joan, JFK, Abe, and Cleo have been thawed out to resume school with their new clone classmates – all while navigating a new set of cultural norms and overly dramatic teen relationships.

Our Take
I know a lot of the X.com bots want to make this one another “Fuck Zaslav” scenario, but really the Clone High reboot was a very mid series at best and show creators Chris Lord and Phil Miller didn’t really exhibit the hunger that they had in the OG series to help make this reboot a success. Sad, really.







There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
