Amazon Prime Video Cancels Fan-Favorite Series After One Season
A tough decision appears to have been made by Amazon Prime Video regarding one of their newest series. While there are plenty of fans for this live-action series, it looks like the show didn't perform well enough, as Amazon's streaming platform has announced that the series will be canceled with only one season.
This is always the kind of disappointing announcement that fans never want to hear. Sadly, however, it looks like the ratings for the series just didn't reach the numbers Amazon was hoping for.
In fact, it appears to have made the #9 spot on the Originals chart for the Nielsen Top 10 streaming rankings before dropping off the ranks in its second week. While the series also performed well critically, it seems as though there just wasn't enough of a dedicated audience to keep it at the top of the platform's charts.
Without a worthwhile performance, then, Amazon Prime made the decision to outright cancel the series.
As shared via Deadline this resulted in the following cancellation:
'Prime Video has opted not to proceed with a second season of its supernatural action drama The Bondsman starring Kevin Bacon.'
The outlet explained the various ways in which the series performed during its initial run, which during its second week, it still managed to stay 'on Prime Video's platform Top 10 list, currently at No. 5 in the U.S., after holding the #1 spot earlier in its run.'
The action horror series The Bondsman stars Kevin Bacon as an undead bounty hunter named Hub Halloran. With a cast that also included Jennifer Nettles, Beth Grant, Damon Herriman, Maxwell Jenkins, and Jolene Purdy, it's a shame to see that it didn't captivate enough of an audience to keep going.
Of course, subscribers have become quite familiar with the way streaming services curate their content, which can often be a harsh and unforgiving landscape if a series fails to perform well enough. As such, we'll have to see what other updates come next regarding our favorite shows. Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any additional television updates as we have them.

Exclusive: Tommy Hilfiger Partners With New Cadillac Formula 1® Team
F1® The Movie star Damson Idris in the new Tommy Hilfiger APXGP Collection. Formula 1® racing is about to get even more popular, thanks to the upcoming F1® The Movie starring Brad Pitt and Damson Idris and the Cadillac Formula 1® team's debut in 2026. Only one fashion brand, Tommy Hilfiger, has starring roles in both. The clothing brand's sponsorship for the Apple Original Films' racing flick produced by Jerry Bruckheimer was announced in March. Now, PVH Corp.'s Tommy Hilfiger, the American preppy brand founded in 1985, is announcing its role as the official apparel partner for the new motorsports team. Founder and principal designer Tommy Hilfiger, whose formative years involved a former F1 racetrack, parlayed love for the fast-paced sport and fashion with several racing partnerships: Team Lotus in 1991, then Ferrari and Mercedes-AMG F1TM️, to brand collaborations with driver Sir Lewis Hamilton. The global fashion powerhouse will play a key apparel role in the first new team to join the pinnacle sport since 2016. The tie-up marks the new F1 race team's first official partner announcement. The products include an official team's kit—to dress drivers, pit crews, paddock staff, team car constructors, management—and sport-inspired fanwear collections. The drop is timed to the March 2026 Formula 1 season and available in Tommy Hilfiger stores globally and select partner distribution. Tommy Hilfiger logo placement will grace technical gear such as the driver's suit, helmet and race car for the new Cadillac Formula 1 team, which was created by TWG Motorsports and General Motors. The announcement comes as the brand launches its F1 The Movie APXGP Collection globally across its stores, with select wholesale partners, and before the film's late June release. The collection features the movie's star, Damson Idris, a Tommy Hilfiger brand ambassador, in the campaign. Former Tommy Hilfiger brand ambassador Lewis Hamilton at the Spring 2018 TommyNow "Drive" show in ... More Milan. According to Hilfiger, the 2019 Netflix docuseries Formula 1®: Drive to Survive and the new F1®: Academyabout female racing talent, opened the sport's popularity to new audiences. "Drive to Survive lifted it to a new level; the F1: Academy will take it to another, but F1 the Movie is like the stratosphere," Hilfiger continued, adding, "I don't think there is another sport as relevant." Alba Larsen of the new series F1 ACADEMY™ "These documentaries show behind the scenes, and that's inspired a lot of new fans, which is the sport's biggest asset," Lowdon concurred. Hilfiger's brand embodies the FAMES approach: fashion, art, music, entertainment, and sports to capture the cultural Zeitgeist. Formula 1 is currently at the apex. "It's more than a sport. It's a global force. Fashion and motorsports have been part of the culture and relate to luxury for years. It's an elite sport gaining many international fans," said Hilfiger. For Lea Rytz Goldman, Tommy Hilfiger Global Brand President, delivering these cultural moments is bolstered by tech. "Tools like AI are helping us better understand what consumers want and how they engage. As we deepen our involvement with Formula 1, we see powerful ways to use technology to bring fans even closer through immersive activations, storytelling, and digital experiences, making them part of the action on the track or online," she said. 'Tommy Hilfiger is driving some of the most exciting consumer engagement in its history, and we are making this strategic investment as Formula 1 expands its relevance in the US and globally. This partnership is the latest example of how we are building Tommy Hilfiger into one of the most desirable lifestyle brands in the world as part of the PVH+ Plan—our long-term, brand-building growth strategy,' added Stefan Larsson, CEO, PVH Corp. Mr. Tommy Hilfiger Tommy sees it organically like the 1970s musical heroes that inspired his design ambitions. "The drivers are like rock stars. They're cool young athletic people living a great lifestyle." Tommy Hilfiger and Cadillac have global brand recognition. The latter is synonymous as the ultimate American luxury car with a motorsport background. "Cadillac has a proud and storied racing history as far back as 1950 when they began competing at Le Mans at World Championship Level," said Cadillac Formula 1 Team Principal Graeme Lowdon. The power of the names together is immense. "These two iconic American brands come together with a colorful history in visual culture. I love racing's iconic graphics. The uniforms are very cool with patches, logos, and team names. It's rich in design territory. We had insight into the Cadillac team's design direction; it will look incredible across the collections," noted Hilfiger. Cadillac Formula 1® Team Principal Graeme Lowdon The car brand is equally enamored. "Tommy has known Formula 1 for a long time. It's the pinnacle of motorsport, like Cadillac is for luxury automobiles. Cadillac's brand values are bold, sophisticated, and optimistic. That was a natural fit with the Tommy Hilfiger brand. Combining this offers an ambitious, confident outlook. The chemistry, vision, and passion felt right from the start. Racing is about passion and desire to win," Lowdon said. Both brands embody Americana with the cars soon to boast 'Made in the USA' in an Indianapolis manufacturing headquarters. "I didn't see that coming in the earlier years. Formula 1 was automobiles and cars coming from Europe. Building out fanwear with our iconic prep with Cadillac's bold racing and motorsport motifs is an exciting playground to push the boundaries," Hilfiger added of the partnership that was nearly two years in the making. Fashion's connection with racing was apparent in the Spring of 2018. Lewis Hamilton became Tommy Hilfiger Men's global brand ambassador and created five Tommy X Lewis collections during their six-year partnership. It coincided with the TommyNow "Drive" show during Milan Fashion Week that involved a race car on a runway. The Tommy x Gigi collection and sporty racing motifs also ran the track. Three of Hamilton's joint-record seven World Drivers Championships occurred during the six-year period. George Russell, another Mercedes team racer to join the Tommy Hilfiger universe, also regularly sported the clothes for appearances on and off the track. "Lewis expressing himself through fashion helped shift the spotlight beyond the track as he became a style icon," Hilfiger said. The collaboration happened before fashion existed in motorsport, and Hamilton's gusto for dressing up inspired other drivers to up the style ante, typically choosing Tommy Hilfiger. Hamilton winning those years is not lost on Lowdon. "There is an advantage to feeling good, whether wearing Tommy or driving a Cadillac. Formula 1 is a big team sport. We want mechanics, engineers, designers, and everyone working at the top of their game, feeling good and focused. The association with Tommy Hilfiger gives them a lot of confidence. People underestimate in sports, what you wear and how you feel are enormously linked to performance." Lowdown added.

Inspiration comes from the uniforms' authenticity to the extended team in the pits and factories. "Technology plays a huge part in all of it because the creation of cars and engines uses advanced technology. Putting technology into our fashion clothing is important. Using technical fabrics that add breathability, waterproofing, or a type of stretch or reflective can feel like the racing uniforms," Hilfiger noted. "Formula 1 is the Haute Couture of motor racing because cars are handmade. I love the creativity that sets Formula 1 apart. We see that same creative flare and passion for design and ideas with Tommy's talented team as ours. We can do many exciting things in this partnership," Lowdon added. "We're setting a new standard for how fashion and F1 can evolve into a new chapter, and we are incredibly proud leading it. It will be an epic milestone for American motorsport," Hilfiger stressed. Rytz Goldman concurs. "It's not just about race day—it's about tapping into the energy of the sport to create cultural moments extending beyond the track like our APXGP Collection, which fuels the connection between style, motorsport, and cinematic storytelling. These and other collaborations will continue to open opportunities to connect with and excite new communities and lead in the cultural conversation," she added. To wit, Tommy Hilfiger is also in partnership with F1 ACADEMY™, the series designed to help develop young female drivers and sponsors Spanish talent Nerea Martí. Archive images from the Tommy Hilfiger Team Lotus collaboration. Musicians were Hilfiger's early design beacons, and so were car races. "I was at a race where the John Player Special team won. Afterward, we talked a couple of the drivers and pit crew into giving us gear. That inspired shirts with embroideries, patches, and all sorts of detail in early collections taken from those authentic black shirts with gold lettering. They were the only team to do black, which was cool," reminisced Hilfiger, recalling his high school proclivities of working on his car at his gas station job and taking it out for a spin on the Watkins Glen track. Both gentlemen are pumped for the respective task ahead, especially one that involves the super stringent world of Formula 1. "It's relentless, but the challenge is part of the appeal. We're building a team for Cadillac's first entry everyone can be proud of. While drivers are the heroes, it involves 1000 people. We want the fans to join us," Lowdon noted. "Above all, I'm proud to be a part of an American team," said Hilfiger, adding, "As a fashion brand, we like to think into the future. What could be disruptive but inclusive and on brand? So, we're always looking at everything through the lens of pop culture that can extend into different categories. There are no limits, and F1 is at the heart of that mix; we've always been ahead of the curve!
