The MTV drama starred Eliza Bennett and Taylor Dearden as Jules and Ophelia, a pair of female college students who become vigilantes, exacting revenge on men who’ve committed sexual assault on campus. Its ten-episode freshman season debuted in November to strong reviews, but meager ratings — just 118,000 viewers tuned in for the January 24 finale — sealed its fate.
