Peacock has canceled the Cold War spy thriller “Ponies” after just one season, Variety has learned.

Starring Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson, the series originally debuted its entire eight-episode first season on Peacock on Jan. 15.

It received mostly positive reviews from critics, with the series holding a 94% critical approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Peacock does not regularly release ratings information for its programs, so judging exactly how “Ponies” performed relative to other titles is difficult. However, it failed to make an appearance on the Nielsen streaming top 10 charts following its release.
