All the Canceled and Renewed TV Shows This Month (July 2023)

July hasn't been as much of a bloodbath as June was, but it's still been a tough one for TV cancellations: Up Here, High Desert, and A Black Lady Sketch Show are among the shows that got bad news this month. July also brought bittersweet news for fans of Sex Education, which will end with its upcoming fourth season. Still, it wasn't all sad: HBO renewed the divine comedy The Righteous Gemstones for Season 4, and two Walking Dead spin-offs will walk into second seasons.
