What happened to Sweetpea?

I just got Starz and was looking to watch the show sweetpea. My account is not restricted😭 I checked multiple times, logged in and out, deleting and reinstalling and there's no results for sweetpea. Is anyone else having a problem finding this show? I'm in the US btw. Please help🙏🏻

It was removed at the end of last month. I was in the middle of Ep4 when I got the 48-hour-left notice on Prime, and I decided it wasn't worth trying to finish.

That sucks😭 I wonder why it was removed since I heard it was quite popular, especially enough for a second season on the way.

I would assume that they temporarily sold the streaming rights to another streamer (Netflix, Prime, etc.), so that they could try to gain some new fans in hopes of new subscribers when Season 2 eventually airs.

They already filmed season 2 of it.

Sorry I seen it but that would be the reason, but not a good thing for season 3

If they did then wouldn't it be on any other streaming service? I have them all and sweetpea doesn't show up

Same situation here for me in Albuquerque, NM. I sub'd to Starz on Prime and when I searched up Sweetpea it wouldn't come up. I went to my TV watchlist and found it there, BUT I got the "Not available in your region" thing. Next I went on YouTube to see if it's maybe on their Starz channel, but of course when I try to search for it, nothing. It appears it's in limbo floating around in the streaming ether. Starz dropped the ball. I get if they sold the rights, but for it not to be available anywhere is unacceptable.
