TORONTO — The creative team behind the CBC and BET Plus series “The Porter” says there’s not going to be a Season 2 of the acclaimed historical drama. Executive producer Jennifer Kawaja commented on the state of “The Porter” shortly after the series scored a leading 19 nominations for the Canadian Screen Awards on Wednesday. Kawaja says that CBC greenlit and supported a second season "until the bitter end" but the U.S. network BET Plus decided to pass on backing additional episodes. Among its CSA nominations are nods for best drama series, best production design and costume design, boasting a level of detail fit for a period piece.
