MTV cancels ‘Eye Candy’ after only one season.
MTV’s new drama, ‘Eye Candy’ is gone. The leading actress, Victoria Justice, made the announcement Saturday via Twitter that the freshman drama has been canceled.
“Eye Candy will not be returning for season two,” she wrote in an extended post. “Even though a lot of you are going to feel sad/angry, please know that playing Lindy Sampson, is something that I loved and I will hold dear to my heart.”
The 10 episode drama averaged around 500,000 total viewers while it was on the air. The show based on R.L. Stine’s ‘Goosebumps’ and centered around a tech genius who suspects that one of her friends is a deadly stalkers. When her friends at the elusive cyber police uncover a potential serial killer in Manhattan, all signs point to one of Lindy’s dates. Teaming with a band of hackers, Lindy works to solve the murders while unleashing her own style of justice on the streets of New York.
The decision to cancel the series comes as MTV is set to present new shows on Tuesday. The new series ‘Scream’ has garnered a ton of attention and is based on the hit movie franchise.
