“The Hour” gets canceled

The Hour,” the suave BBC series about the inner workings of a 1950s newsmagazine, has been canceled after two season. The show, which starred Romola Garai, Ben Whishaw, and Dominic West as journalists as intelligent and curious as they are good looking, was an ideal TV treat: as delicious as it was nutritious (okay, fine, maybe a little more delicious than nutritious). It’s a shame that it won’t be back — but it’s especially a shame it won't be back because of how it ended.
