— Deadline Hollywood (@DEADLINE) May 26, 2017
* Official decision is expected next week.
* Sony Pictures TV (producer) exposed Underground to other networks. BET, OWN and Hulu had been mentioned as obvious possibilities at the time and were all approached.
* BET came close to a deal for the drama before it came apart. OWN reportedly still in the mix.
* the show’s big price tag could be an issue in finding a new network home.
* WGNA appears unlikely to renew Underground.
* WGNA and its scripted series (outsiders cancelled in April) are becoming collateral damage (focusing on what’s right financially in the short term.)
