"Six seasons is a good run, but if other, lesser sitcoms can make it to a seventh or eighth season, then I don’t see why Superstore couldn’t have done the same. 2020 has been a rough year and I don’t trust any other comedy to be as culturally aware the way Superstore is," says Mae Abdulbaki. "It’s a great loss and I’m mourning despite Season 6 not being over just yet. Would this cancelation have come if (America) Ferrera had decided to stay with the show? Maybe. I’m not blaming her for leaving, but the news of cancelation is a hard pill to swallow mere weeks after her departure. Superstore has so much comedic potential left and it’s a shame that it’s being kicked off the network when we need it most."
