The Flight Attendant was one of the shows that put Max on the map, but its journey on this streaming service is coming to an end. The dark comedy thriller led by Kaley Cuoco has officially been canceled almost two years after its Season 2 finale.

The Flight Attendant followed the adventures of an alcoholic flight attendant Cassie, whose self-destructive behavior gets her in trouble after she wakes up hangover next to a dead passenger she hooked up with the night before.

The first season saw her trying to trace back her memories and prove she’s not the killer, while Season 2 shifted the gears and showed her trying to get a fresh start – while working as an asset for the CIA.

In addition to Cuoco, who also served as the show’s executive producer, The Flight Attendant starred Zosia Mamet, Griffin Matthews, Deniz Akdeniz, Rosie Perez, Michiel Huisman, Colin Woodell, T. R. Knight, and Michelle Gomez.

The Flight Attendant showrunner Steve Yockey confirmed its cancelation and said that the reception from viewers and critics alike was pretty stunning.

“Our unorthodox spectacle of a show really found people. As we all move on to new projects, those two seasons of television and the incredible team of professionals behind them will always stay at the top of my list,” said Yockey in a statement.
