‘Perfect Harmony’ Cast Reacts to Cancellation After One Season
Perfect Harmony will not be returning for a second season, and the cast is lamenting the news on social media.
“My heart really hurts. We had an incredible female show runner, an incredibly talented and diverse cast, and an incredibly talented and diverse writers room,” Anna Camp, who played Ginny, wrote on Instagram after the news broke Wednesday.
Rizwan Manji, who played Reverend Jax, and Spencer Allport, who played Cash, echoed Camp’s message. Manji noted on Instagram that, in addition to the female showrunner (Lesley Wake Webster), it had “one of the most diverse casts ever, one of the most diverse writers rooms ever, female and diverse directors, [and] cast/crew that gets along and respects one another.”
Agreed, such a wonderful cast, female showrunner, diverse. So sad to see it go.

“I’ve never loved every cast member more and never gotten along so well with everyone on a production. We wanted to show that you can bring people of different backgrounds together through the joy of music and we did,” Camp added in her farewell alongside photos from the show.
Tymberlee Hill, who played Adams, wrote on Twitter that the show wouldn’t be returning on June 4. After thanking the fans, she said, ” I had the time of my life with You.”
It’s A wild time right now. So, I wish I had better news. But I just wanted to say, Thank You So Much to the fans of @PerfectHarmony For Your Love. The show will Not be coming back for a Second Season. But I had the time of my life with You, my #PerfectHarmony Family. Xo❤️

The NBC comedy followed a former Princeton music professor (Bradley Whitford) who stumbled upon a small-town church choir. It also starred Will Greenberg and Geno Segers.

I loved this cute show! Made me laugh, giggle, cry. Loved the mix of actors-it worked! I set my DVR for that show every week. With some of the yuck that's on tv, I'm really disappointed that this breath of fresh air humor won't be back in the fall. Maybe one of the cable channels will grab it up & continue to provide something I can watch with my child & my parent!

This just goes to show that no your show wont be successful just because its diverse. Good. People need to realize that.
This was not a comment on the quality of the show. I enjoyed it.

I do believe it is called acting and he was just playing his character that was written for him and did a great job. What a refreshing show with no fowl language and diverse cast. I loved each of them and shame on you that cancelled it!

Notice who didn't bother to comment because he didn't care (and that was evident from his lack of effort on the show)? Bradley Whitford. This show was doomed when that snarky, self important jerk was cast in the lead. Sorry for the castmembers who actually worked hard and tried to make the show succeed. You just know a network doesn't care about a show when they cast Whitford.

That is completely untrue! I've spoken to Whitford about the show, and he loved it dearly and loved the cast and crew. He was proud to be a part of it. I'm certain he is as heartbroken as the rest of the cast about its cancellation.

Okay, sure. He just decided to sleepwalk through his part and alienate potential fans because he felt that way.
