CBS All Access has canceled Kevin Williamson’s Tell Me a Story after two seasons. The series will be re-run on The CW but it’s unclear when it will make its debut on its streaming platform, CW Seed. That said, seasons one and two will also continue to stream on CBS All Access.
Julie McNamara, executive VP and head of programming at CBS All Access, said in a statement: “The brilliant Kevin Williamson brought our favorite fairy tales to life in an anthology format that twisted and subverted the stories we all know into modern thrillers. It has been a privilege to work with such an elite and talented group of creative minds like Kevin, Aaron Kaplan and the team at Kapital Entertainment, as well as the amazing cast of Tell Me a Story, who did a phenomenal job personifying and reinventing beloved characters from these six fairy tales.”
