Ride Or Die Searches for a New Platform
The cancellation comes despite strong performance for the series. Following its July 15 premiere, Ride Or Die reached the top of Prime Video’s daily US rankings and also appeared on Luminate and Nielsen’s streaming charts. The series earned a 96% critics’ score and an 85% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.
The first season ended with several storylines that could have continued into a second season. Paramount Television Studios is now shopping the series to other potential buyers.
