Life Sentence star Lucy Hale made the announcement via Twitter: the CW dramedy will end after one season…

Bad news, Life Sentence fans. The CW has chosen not to renew the romantic dramedy for a second season. Proof, if nothing else, that the network is still capable of cancelling a show.

Life Sentence star Lucy Hale made the announcement today via Twitter, telling fans: “I was emotionally attached to this story and to everyone involved so I’m a little shell shocked right now, but I feel fortunate that we got to tell a really beautiful story.”

Life Sentence is the story of a young woman named Stella, played by Hale, who finds out her cancer is in remission and, with it, that her family has been keeping the complications and struggles of their own lives from her since her diagnosis eight years prior.

In addition to Hale, the story also stars Elliot Knight as Wes Charles, Jayson Blair as Aiden Abbott, Brooke Lyons as Elizabeth Abbott Rojas, Carlos PenaVega as Diego Rojas, Gillian Vigman as Ida Abbott, and Dylan Walsh as Paul Abbott.

Life Sentence has been struggling in the ratings, moving to Fridays last month in the US and hitting a low of 0.1 in 18-49 in live, same-day linear ratings, though getting a boost in delayed viewing and on-demand.
