Canceling a TV show after already renewing it may not be the original sin, but surely Dante would have something to say about it. Paramount canceled prequel series Dexter: Original Sin<\/a> on August 22, after previously renewing the show in April, per Variety<\/a>. The show follows the titular serial killer in his youth, starring Patrick Gibson, with the original Dexter, Michael C. Hall<\/a>, voicing the narrator. The series aired on Paramount+ and was renewed about a month after its first season ended on February 14<\/a>. No production dates were scheduled, according to a Variety report, and the publication\u2019s sources say that, despite the renewal announcement, the show was actually on hiatus. The decision to change courses on Original Sin comes less than a month after new leadership took control of Paramount<\/a>, which was bought by David Ellison\u2019s Skydance.<\/p>\n

Currently, Paramount+ is airing Dexter: Resurrection<\/a>, a sequel to the original series starring Hall as Dexter. A writers\u2019 room for season two of Resurrection is in development, per Variety, though it has not been renewed. And even if it is renewed \u2014 could anybody trust it?<\/p>\n
