Y: The Last Man – Brian K. Vaughan Confirms No FX on Hulu Season 2

FX on Hulu and EP & showrunner Eliza Clark's adaptation of Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra's comic book series Y: The Last Man, will not be getting a second season, a surprising announcement made by Vaughan on his Instagram account. "Some unexpected hard news about Y: THE LAST MAN just posted by our showrunner @elizaaclarkw, BUT…this is not the first time in twenty years I've seen Yorick & co. escape the seemingly inescapable! I love this show, and I'm very hopeful Y will find a new home, not just because it happens to employ more extraordinary women, people of color, and members of the LGBTQ+ community—both in front of and behind the camera—than any project I've ever been a part of, but because they've made something spectacular, the kind of thoughtful, contemporary, fearless evolution of the comic that @pia.guerra and I always wanted. These next three episodes are the very best of the season, so please keep watching, and if you want to see this journey continue as much as I do, we encourage you to let the world know: #YLivesOn'"
