Hazel and Byron are really over. HBO Max has cancelled the Made for Love TV series so the characters won't be back for a third season.

HBO Max is breaking up with Made for Love.
The streaming service has officially canceled the Cristin Milioti-fronted dark comedy after two seasons, according to Variety.
“We are tremendously grateful for the truly spectacular journey of these past two seasons, courtesy of Alissa Nutting, Christina Lee, Cristin [Milioti], Billy [Magnussen], Ray [Romano] and the entire Made for Love cast and creative team — especially Zelda the talking dolphin and everyone’s favorite synthetic love interest, Diane,” HBO Max said in a statement to Variety.

“Made for Love” is a series about relationships, specifically a toxic one of control and possession. It sounds difficult that a situation like that could be made humorous, but creators Christina Lee and Dean Bakopoulous have done just that. The series follows Hazel Green (Cristin Milioti), the wife of tech entrepreneur Byron Gogol (Billy Magnussen). Last season saw Hazel escape Byron’s tech-fortress, known as The Hub, only to discover he’d implanted a chip in her brain to see her every thought.
This season, Hazel may be back in the Hub — using Byron’s company’s access to medicine to cure her father’s cancer — but Byron is committed to letting her be her own woman; he also hopes to win her back by showing he’s a kinder, less dominating soul. Magnussen, who has played several cads in his career, from “Made for Love” to “Ingrid Goes West,...

Cristin Milioti is on a roll. The Tony-nominated actress (“Once”) went on to display her range in both TV comedy (“How I Met Your Mother”) and science-fiction (“Black Mirror”). After impressing film critics in last year’s time-loop sci-fi comedy “Palm Springs” she has returned to television and delivers her best performance to date as the beleaguered housewife in the HBO Max series “Made For Love.”
Hazel Green is a one-time grifter who would seem to have hit the jackpot by marrying tech billionaire Byron Gogol (Billy Magnussen). But Byron’s technology, which has funded her luxurious lifestyle, has now been turned on her — her husband has implanted in her brain a microchip, innocently named Made for Love, that will track her every move and constantly gauge her emotional state of mind. Indeed, Hazel has become a prisoner in her own mansion.

Armed with the comedic punch and snap of That Girl’s Marlo Thomas and the poise of Audrey Hepburn, Cristin Milioti has built a rapidly blossoming career of deconstructing the romantic heroine.
The characters in repertoire may come off as the nice girlfriend, but they’re dealing with significantly more baggage than any Hepburn protagonist, from Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany’s to Regina Lampert in Charade, could bear.
And by the way, it’s not the girl in Milioti’s world who has the problems, it’s the guy.
Whether it’s an obsessed software developer boss whose trapped her in a Star Trek-like virtual game (the 2017 Black Mirror episode “USS Callister) or an overbearing paternal doorman who gets in the way of her promising love life (the 2019 Amazon anthology series Modern Love), Milioti’s alter egos have complicated lives.

Cristin Milioti knows there’s a weird coincidental feel that her 2020 film “Palm Springs” and her 2021 series “Made For Love” both felt very timely as bookends to the pandemic. “Palm Springs” was about living the same day over and over again — something that felt very familiar during quarantine times — while “Made for Love” is all about feeling trapped and confined by your surroundings.
“I feel astronomically grateful and blessed that I was able to shoot anything during this time, and that I was able to put anything out,” Milioti tells Variety’s Awards Circuit podcast. “The fact that ‘Palm Springs’ came out when it did, and sort of resonated in this different way that we had no idea it would do. And the way that ‘Made for Love,’ weirdly, has resonated within like all of us being trapped and a slave to our technology… I can’t believe it.”

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not yet watched “Let’s Meet,” the first season finale of “Made For Love,” streaming now on HBO Max.
For seven-and-a-half episodes Hazel Green (Cristin Milioti) was on the run from her controlling tech-gazillionaire husband Byron Gogol (Billy Magnussen), but in the final moments of the first season finale of “Made for Love,” she went back to him — and she dragged her cancer-riddled father Herbert (Ray Romano) along with her.
In the premiere episode, Hazel fled her marital home-slash-hub of a decade after just as many years of emotional and psychological abuse and imprisonment, with the final straw being that her husband implanted a chip inside her brain so that he could not only monitor her whereabouts but also eventually “merge” with her. The claim was that it would provide better understanding and more togetherness. The reality was he did it without her consent.

When your twisted tech mogul husband puts a chip in your brain to spy on you –and also monitors your orgasms– yeah, it’s time to move on.
In a last minute shocking twist, Cristin Milioti’s Hazel Green decided to stick with her crazed, megalomaniac visionary husband Byron Gogol, played by Billy Magnussen, even though we saw her sign divorce papers and insist upon her independence. After Byron invaded her personal space to put it mildly, and used her as his advanced technological experiment, Hazel was easily done with him. That is until Byron one-upped her in an effort to win her back: He disclosed to Hazel that her sex-doll loving dad Herbert, wryly played by Ray Romano, had cancer.

That is until Byron one-upped her in an effort to win her back: He disclosed to Hazel that her sex-doll loving dad Herbert, wryly played by Ray Romano, had cancer. Herbert stood a better chance at life by moving to Byron’s ‘Hub...

In adapting her sci-fi novel “Made for Love” for television, author Alissa Nutting worked with showrunner Christina Lee to bring to the screen some fantastical elements, like simulated beaches so convincing that they’re indistinguishable from the real thing.
But the crux of the story is an analog one: an examination of who you are when you’re in a relationship — and who you are when no one else is watching.
Nutting wanted to explore the themes of “technology, love, relationship, surveillance and divorce… on a really fun and entertaining and suspenseful visual scale.”
The HBO Max series, from Paramount Television Studios, centers on Cristin Milioti as Hazel Green, a woman who discovers that her controlling tech billionaire husband, Byron Gogol (Billy Magnussen), has implanted a chip in her brain that tracks her whereabouts and her emotions. The technology visualized on-screen seems at once futuristic — the Gogol complex is a...

Like so many love stories, “Made for Love” may not be built to last, and it’s certainly not a healthy romance, but these two kids might just make it work anyway. Well, two kids, one parent, and a sex doll, to be specific.
The HBO Max original series — about a woman trying to escape her controlling tech billionaire husband after he puts a chip in her brain without telling her — is often charming (thanks mainly to its well-assembled cast), well-acted, and fitfully bizarre (in a good way), even if it doesn’t exactly put its best foot forward. Writers Alissa Nutting, Patrick Somerville, Dean Bakopoulos, and Christina Lee (who also serves as showrunner) split the pilot into two timelines: one in the “present” and the other 24 hours prior. These early episodes can be frustrating, as very basic questions distract from the sci-fi satire’s broader ideas and emotional engagement,...

HBO Max has dropped the teaser trailer for Made for Love, a dark comedy series heading to the streaming service in April.
Based on the minute-long preview, the series is a romantic comedy with a Black Mirror twist: Cristin Milioti’s character Hazel Green falls in love with a tech billionaire (Billy Magnussen) who, ultimately, implants a high-tech surveillance chip in her brain, resulting in her losing grip on reality.
Hazel’s attempts to flee the relationship are sabotaged by the chip, which follows and captures her every move while tracking “emotional data.

Step aside, Mr. Grey, because HBO Max has released the first teaser trailer for the Cristin Milioti-led dark comedy “Made for Love,” and it features a truly haunting rendition of Beyonce’s “Crazy in Love” by Ray Romano.
The series, an adaptation of the 2017 novel by Alissa Nutting, stars Milioti as Hazel Green, a woman on the run after 10 years in a suffocating marriage to tech billionaire Byron Gogol (Billy Magnussen). Hazel soon discovers that Byron has implanted a monitoring device — the Made for Love chip — in her brain, allowing him to watch her every move as she seeks refuge with her aging widower father Herbert (Ray Romano) and his “synthetic partner,” Diane.
Yep, seems pretty crazy.
In addition to Milioti, Magnussen and Romano, the series also stars Dan Bakkedahl, Noma Dumezweni and Augusto Aguilera. Guest stars include Caleb Foote, Kym Whitley, Nyasha Hatendi, Patti Harrison, Ione Skye, Jon Daly,...

“Maniac” creator Patrick Somerville has signed on to helm two new series, “Made for Love” and “Station Eleven,” for WarnerMedia’s upcoming streaming service.
“Made for Love,” which will be executive produced and directed by S.J. Clarkson, is a 10-episode, straight-to-series adaptation based on the novel of the same name by Alissa Nutting. Nutting, Liza Chasin and Dean Bakopoulos will also executive produce. WarnerMedia Entertainment will co-produce with Paramount TV.
The half-hour comedy follows Hazel Green, a 30-something woman on the run after 10 years in a suffocating marriage to an unstable tech billionaire. Soon she discovers that her husband has already implanted a revolutionary monitoring device — the Made for Love — in her brain, allowing him to track her, watch her, and know her thoughts and feelings as she tries to stay alive.
“Station Eleven” will be directed by frequent “Atlanta” and “Barry” director Hiro Murai, who will also serve as an executive producer.
