Why Was It Cancelled? This fantasy series was acquired by The CW to fill up space on the schedule in the Summer months and it did that pretty well over its first two seasons.  Its numbers dropped in its third year (which aired Fall 2020 due to pandemic-related delays), and the numbers slipped.  A fourth season was ordered which looked like it could be the show’s last, and The CW did indeed pull the plug after that aired.  But it at least had the opportunity to wrap up some of its storylines.
