Love, Victor fans react to show ending with season 3: ‘This is my villain origin story’
News of Love, Victor’s upcoming third season being its last has sparked a passionate response online from fans. On 8 February, it was announced as part of Hulu’s TCA presentation that the beloved LGBTQ+ comedy-drama will return for a final eight episodes on 15 June.
Immediately after the news broke, viewers came out in droves on social media to mourn Love, Victor’s cancellation. “Love Victor’s third season being its final season is my villain origin story,” tweeted one fan, while another shared: “Hulu ending Love Victor at season 3 is SO strange.
They don’t have any other original shows to cater to the demographic Love Victor caters to.” Others expressed how the series “deserves so much more than three seasons,” especially when it was “actually starting to get popular”. “Whether you loved, hated, or were just completely indifferent to Love, Victor: There goes another LGBTQ+ show for younger audiences,” said another.
Love, Victor’s first two seasons received highly positive reviews from critics and fans of the original film, Love, Simon, which made history upon release as the first film by a major Hollywood studio to revolve around a gay romance.
