Vampire Academy Canceled After One Season

Peacock has banished the supernatural series Vampire Academy to the streaming graveyard after one season.

Deadline explains, “Deadline understands that execs at Peacock were happy with both shows creatively but they just didn’t find the requisite audience to justify further seasons.”

The other show they're referring to is One of Us Is Lying, which was also canceled after two seasons.

Vampire Academy was handed a straight-to-series order in May 2021 and premiered in September 2022.

Written by Marguerite MacIntyre, Vampire Academy is set in a world of privilege and glamour, where two young women’s friendship transcends their strikingly different classes as they prepare to complete their education and enter royal vampire society. This serialized and sexy drama combines the elegance of aristocratic romance and the supernatural thrills of the vampire genre.

The cast includes Sisi Stringer, Daniela Nieves, Kieron Moore, Andre Dae Kim, J. August Richards, Anita-Joy Uwajeh, Mia Mckenna-Bruce, Rhian Blundell, Jonetta Kaiser and Andrew Liner.

Vampire Academy looked like some cheap, tired teen supernatural series straight out of the CW, and no shade, but it wasn't a good show.

Funnily enough, Julie Plec was an EP on the CW series The Vampire Diaries,The Originals, Legacies, which makes perfect sense why the show didn't resonate with audiences.

Fingers crossed the upcoming Friday the 13th prequel series Crystal Lake will fare better on Peacock.
