The last couple weeks have been a bloodbath when it’s come to television cancellations. Great women created shows like Ann Biderman’s Southland on TNT didn’t make it. Here are some of the women created shows that got canceled this season with a focus on the main networks. We hope to see more great work from these talented women on our television screens again soon.
