This is pretty disappointing. I always liked all three of these shows, especially Hung. Season two basically sucked, but Season 3 was pretty solid except for the finale which is now all I'll have to remember the show by. FuuuuckHBO has canceled three of its shows: "Hung," "How to Make it in America" and "Bored to Death," Variety was the first to report. But the primetime cable network did spare one series. According to TVLine, the struggling "Enlightened" was renewed.
"Hung," which just ended its third season, starred Thomas Jane as a gym teacher-turned male hooker. Jane Adams, Anne Heche and Rebecca Creskoff also starred. The Season 3 finale aired on Dec. 4 and pulled in under 1 million viewers.
The Bryan Greenberg-fronted "How to Make it in America," about breaking into New York City's fashion scene, just ended its second season. The show, which also starred Lake Bell and Victor Rasuk, brought in under 600,000 for its Season 2 finale.
"Bored to Death" wrapped its third season in late November. The show starred Jason Schwartzman as a fictional Jonathan Ames as well as Ted Danson and Zach Galifianakis. Despite its impressive cast, "Bored to Death" only had 200,000 viewers tune into the Season 3 finale last month.
The survivor, "Enlightened," starring Laura Dern, will return for a second season. The show recently picked up several Golden Globe nominations, including one for Best Comedy.

Not cool, I really liked all 3 of those shows. Also, Enlightened fucking sucks and should have been canned 2 eps in.

Hung and Bored to Death were never that great, but I enjoyed both of them. Was surprised they got renews last year so not surprised they are both getting cancelled.
Hung got better each season and was really enjoyable this season, but it took too long to get going and i would def not characterize it as a comedy. it's more of a drama.
Bored to Death was never really laugh out loud funny, but it was enjoyable and i liked the qwerky characters. Though Ray's stories got worse and worse each season and was borderline disturbing this past season.

Who the fuck watches Enlightened? It's like a pretentious, cringe-inducing Lifetime movie about hippies.
