Amazon has cancelled its award-winning comedy-drama series Mozart in the Jungle after its four season-long run. Produced by Amazon Studios, the series helped the streaming giant cement its position as an award-worthy show with its surprise Golden Globe win in 2016 for best comedy series and the lead comedy actor for Gael Garcia Bernal. Executive produced by Paul Weitz, Will Graham, Roman Coppola, and Jason Schwartzman, the offbeat show revolved around the life of a brash young conductor at the New York Symphony.
