What happens

One Mississippi is an American comedy television series created by comedian Tig Notaro and Diablo Cody. The pilot episode, directed by Nicole Holofcener, aired on Amazon Prime Video on November 5, 2015, and was picked up for a full series after positive feedback from audiences. One Mississippi premiered on September 9, 2016. On November 14, 2016, Amazon renewed the show for a second season, which was released on Amazon on September 8, 2017. On January 18, 2018, the series was canceled after two seasons which Amazon explained as "part of a move towards bigger, wider-audience series". Eventually as the show is produced by FXP, A division of FX Networks (also owned by Disney) and Disney Television Studios, Disney pulled One Mississippi from Amazon Prime Video, although it has since returned. Currently One Mississippi streams on Disney+ Star internationally and on Hulu in the U.S. as well. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
