An HBO spokesperson said "The Idol" is the most provocative production yet and was pleased with the strong audience response.
"After much thought and consideration, we have decided not to renew the show. We thank the creators, cast and crew for their incredible work," the spokesperson said.

The Idol has no season 2
Produced by The Weeknd and Sam Levinson, "The Idol" tells the love story of a pop singer named Jocelyn and a mysterious cult leader played by The Weeknd. The film premiered at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival and subsequently received mixed reviews.
Film critics have criticized this work. They say that the film overuses nudity and "hot" scenes in an "indiscriminate" way, with many scenes that do not serve the content of the film. The film even received a score of 9/100.
However, with the participation of Jennie of Blackpink in the supporting role of Dyanne, the film attracted a lot of attention from her fans when it aired on HBO. Right from the first episodes, Jennie became the subject of controversy, criticized by a part of the public for her sensitive dance scene with male dancers.
Blackpink's Jennie received a lot of criticism for her role.
Her controversial dance scene
Many people think that the scene is erotic and unartistic, and Jennie's expressions while acting in this scene are even more offensive. They "stoned" the female singer for having a forgettable debut role, negatively affecting her image.
In the following episodes, Jennie was criticized for her stiff acting and inability to express the character's emotions, but she was still the center of attention due to her own popularity.
They said she had no acting ability. In addition, the film was also criticized for its bad script, overuse of nudity and hot scenes mainly to attract attention.
