Why Only 2 Seasons?:
After Deadline reported about the cancellation of the series after 2 seasons, it was shocking for the audiences as it was going pretty well, and as such nobody was having many problems around it.

Although Deadline failed to give any reason for its cancellation, a few reasons starting from some flawed characters to bad direction can be estimated. Even Vanity Fair quoted that the Lamorne Morris starrer Woke is a Comedy for no one:
“Despite a winning cast and a premise that sounds great on paper, Hulu’s Woke, debuting September 9, ends up being a mostly unsatisfying eight-episode investment.”
Vanity Fair further added:
“Woke’s other problem is that the first season just takes too long to say anything interesting”
According to some reviews, it’s also not very fresh looking in itself but at the end of the day, nobody but only Hulu knows the main reason.
