After the news was revealed, fans rushed to social media to have their say. 

One said: “I found out Based on a True Story was recently canceled and I’m so bummed.”

And another furious viewer sent a message to Peacock, saying: “Very disappointed to hear that you have canceled Based on a True Story after 2 seasons. 

“I am probably going to cancel my paid subscription and just boycott your channel altogether. 

“The show received a 79% percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Very stupid decision.”

The first season of Based on a True Story premiered in June 2023 with a second following in November last year. 

Kaley, 39, stars as Ava Bartlett, a pregnant real estate agent who is passionate about true crime.

The series also features Chris Messina, who plays Ava’s husband and former tennis pro Nathan, and Tom Bateman as Matt Pierce. 

Kaley previously told how she took the job due to the show reflecting a lot of her real life.

She told Awards Review: “A lot of boxes were checked for me in this show. The writing was fantastic.

“I love true crime. I literally fall asleep to Dateline every single night. I watch repeats, I listen to murder podcasts.

“I also grew up playing tennis. There’s a lot of parts from this show that made sense for me. And knowing that I was going to work with Chris Messina was something I really wanted to do, too.”
