Hulu has officially ended its run of the crime comedy Deli Boys. The series concludes after two seasons. While the show gained notice for its blend of criminal underworld drama and family humor, reports indicate the cancellation follows low viewership numbers.
Created by Abdullah Saeed, the show followed two brothers forced to manage their late father's drug business under the guidance of their aunt, played by Poorna Jagannathan. Critics noted the show for its fast-paced style and the performances of its leads. Despite an abbreviated second season and a marketing push from the network, the project failed to secure the necessary ratings to continue.
No official statement has arrived from the show's creator. The decision leaves several plot lines unresolved, including the fate of characters introduced in the final episodes. The cancellation marks the end of a series that attempted to balance grit with comedy in a saturated streaming market.
