The Upcoming Third Season of "Shrill" Will Be the Portland-Based Comedy's Last

Shrill is coming to an end. The Hulu comedy, starring  Saturday Night Lives Aidy Bryant and based on the memoir by Seattle writer Lindy West, will conclude with its upcoming third season, which recently wrapped filming.  " Shrill has been one of the most creatively satisfying experiences of my life," Bryant said in a statement, "a true labor of love for me and everyone who worked so hard on it."
