The LGBTQ-inclusive show's co-creator says blaming its cancellation on the actors' and writers' strikes is cowardly and worse.
In June, 95-year-old former ball player Maybelle Blair came out publicly as gay. At a panel for the A League of Their Own series at Frameline, she shared about queer life in the league.
A short second season for the LGBTQ-inclusive series had been announced, but it won't happen now because of Hollywood strikes, sources say.
A League of Their Own’s queer co-creator Will Graham thanked fans and urged them to find and hold on to joy amid the show’s cancellation by Amazon Studios, which comes at a tough political moment for LGBTQ+ people.
