The team behind Rap Sh!t is weighing in after news broke Thursday that Max canceled the comedy series following a two-season run.
Created by Issa Rae, Rap Sh!t starred Aida Osman (Shawna) and KaMillion (Mia) as two friends who reconnect in Miami and form a rap duo. The show’s second season launch was delayed to November 2023 due to the SAG-AFTRA strike, with the season finale debuting Dec. 21.
“A real ass group of people,” showrunner Syreeta Singleton captioned an Instagram post that featured video of the show’s writing staff. “The best writers room ever. I will cherish this experience forever and ever. #seduceandscheme for life.”
Among those commenting on the post was co-star Daisy Fernandez (Peaches), who wrote, “Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this incredible show. I am forever grateful to y’all! I can’t wait to see what amazing things you do next.

00Bama on Atom is pretty much what you expect; a web series about our 44th president moonlighting as a secret agent. Where SNL has failed in stretching sketches into feature length movies, 00Bama seems to have succeeded at turning a pun into a simple, slick, and fun web series. It was a refreshing choice by the talented writer / director Todd Berger to mimic high-end action movie like the Jason Bourne franchise. Most web series that ironically embrace shoddy production and ultimately collapse under the weight of their self-indulgence. Speaking of self-indulgence, how ‘bout that last sentence? Episode one (episode one) is a great example of how Berger maximizes the premise of the series. A simple interrogation scene of a would-be terrorist lets the audience see the 00Bama character in action with out much plot getting in way. Consequently, the two subsequent episodes suffer a bit because of a too much plot.
