"Mistresses" season 5 has just been cancelled by ABC, but fans hope that other networks and streaming sites will pick it up for at least another season.
While speaking with TV Line before the official cancellation of "Mistresses," executive producer Rina Mimoun said that season 5 would've been centered on Karen Kim 2.0.
In the finale for season 2, April was approached by a woman who resembled and claimed that she is her good friend Karen. However, the real Karen already passed away.
"I don't think in season 5, we're looking to create a whole new series regular. But Karen Kim 2.0 would be prominently featured, as would Harry's newly discovered adult son Gabe. Plus, there's a ton of new characters we want to bring into our world who naturally fit, and a few who've been missed, who we'd want to bring back to spark a little fun. We'd do it knowing it was our final season, to be able to tie it off in a way that's satisfying for fans," she explained.
Unfortunately, "Mistresses" has already been cancelled, but fans are still looking forward to hearing an announcement that it will be picked up by another network.
Meanwhile, some fans were also pleased with ABC's decision to axe the series especially since the original Karen Kim, played by Yunjin Kim, will no longer be around.
One fan wrote, "I was very surprised at Karen's exit from the show. I will miss her character. She was so interesting with her storyline. I don't know how I feel about Joss having a baby already. Such a free spirit."
Another fan @Debble wrote, "I am absolutely mortified that there is no more Karen! I could not believe my eyes when the part 2 finale started! I have liked her ever since 'Lost'... this is so unfair!"
One fan@LD wrote, "Utterly poor decision to kill off Karen. Seems like since Alyssa left, the show has gone downhill and then this? I was extremely disappointed with the way her character was written off."
"Mistresses" season 4 aired its final episode earlier this week.
