Winter Binged 2022 - Made for Love - Seasons One + Two

Made for Love is based on the 2017 novel of the same name by Alissa Nutting. 

The series premiered on HBO Max on April 1, 2021. In Australian though, it's one of those few random HBO Max titles (like Hacks) that streams on Stan. I did sleep on season one, not sure why, however I am now completely up to date.

Starring Cristin Milioti, Billy Magnussen & Ray Romano, the second & final season premiered late April, 2022.

Despite positive reviews, in June 2022, the series was canceled after two seasons following the merger of HBO Max's parent company WarnerMedia with Discovery, Inc. to become Warner Bros. Discovery.

This makes me scared for future HBO Max series like Gossip Girl, the return of Hacks, Peacemaker, Pennyworth and more.


The two season, comedy series is based on a woman escapes from a suffocating 10-year marriage to a tech billionaire, she discovers her husband had her fitted with a tracking device. 

The device, which he implanted in her brain, allows him to track her location, watch her live, and know her emotional data as she tries to regain her independence.

I enjoyed Made for Love for the most part. The final two episodes were a bit all over the shop. But did the now May 19th season two finale wrap everything up? Well not really. I hope other HBO Max series don't just end like this.

I feel the axe will fall on many more shows with The CW sale, what seems like issues at HBO/Warner along with a few shows like The Blacklist getting a little long in the teeth.

Come back for a new feature record tomorrow morning. All 16 episodes of Made for Love stream right now on Stan.
