“The Horror of Dolores Roach” Cancelled at Amazon After One Season

Based on the hit podcast, Prime Video debuted the Amazon Original series “The Horror of Dolores Roach” this past July, and we’ve learned the series has been cancelled.

After just one season, “The Horror of Dolores Roach” is no more at Prime Video.

Justina Machado starred in the first season of “Dolores Roach.”

The eight-episode, half-hour series is a contemporary Sweeney Todd-inspired tale, a macabre urban legend of love, betrayal, weed, gentrification, cannibalism, and survival of the fittest.

In the series, “Dolores Roach is released from prison after 16 years and returns to a severely gentrified Washington Heights with $200 and the clothes on her back. Her boyfriend missing, her family long gone, Dolores reunites with an old stoner buddy, Luis, who gives her room and board and lets her give massages for cash in the basement under his dilapidated storefront, Empanada Loca, the only remnant of her former life. When the promise of her newfound stability is quickly threatened, ‘Magic Hands Dolores’ is driven to shocking extremes to survive, and in the face of unexpected professional success, Dolores and Luis become dangerously symbiotic, and Luis must unleash his own peculiar predilections.”

“The Horror of Dolores Roach” also stars Alejandro HernandezKita Updike, and K. Todd Freeman. Plus Cyndi LauperMarc Maron (“Glow”), Jean Yoon (Kim’s Convenience), Judy Reyes (SmileBirth/Rebirth), and Jeffery Self (“Search Party).

Originally created by Aaron Mark as a one-woman play, Empanada Loca, Mark created, wrote, and directed the original podcast and penned the series pilot. The series comes from Mark, who also serves as co-showrunner and executive producer with Dara Resnik, alongside executive producers Daphne Rubin-Vega; Jason Blum, Chris McCumber, Jeremy Gold, and Chris Dickie for Blumhouse TV; Dawn Ostroff, Mimi O’Donnell, and Justin McGoldrick for Spotify; Gloria Calderón Kellett for GloNation Studios; and Roxann Dawson, who directed the pilot.

Meagan Navarro wrote in her review of “Dolores Roach” for Bloody Disgusting, “a breezy, likable first season does enough to hook you but fizzles with its surface-level storytelling.”
