Silverman's Emmy-nominated variety-talk series, which debuted in October 2017, will not return after a two-part 21-episode first season. "Well, Hulu cancelled I LOVE YOU AMERICA and we’re all pretty damn heartbroken," Silverman tweeted this morning. I Love You, America, which was nominated for Outstanding Variety Sketch series at last year's Emmys, was the only Hulu comedy to be nominated. As The Hollywood Reporter points out, "I Love You, America is not owned by Hulu but rather by Silverman and Funny or Die. There is a universe in which the Silverman passion project could be swooped up by another outlet, if one found itself interested. In addition to critical goodwill, it offers what is a frighteningly rare commodity in the late-night space: a female at the helm." Silverman's departure leaves Samantha Bee and Busy Philipps as the only women hosting late-night shows.
