Before the cancelation, Morris spoke about how the show seemed to have grown in popularity with the release of season 2. The new season had brought some new viewers to the series who'd gone back and watched season 1 once they were made aware of the show. It brought a lot of conversation to the series which was certainly a good thing for Morris and the Woke team.

"I think the cool thing about it is that folks are becoming aware of the show more," Morris told E! News. "A lot of folks are going back to watch the first season, which is just awesome. People who didn't know it existed are now talking about it."

Of Keef's direction in season 2, Morris added, "That is the age old question with anything that we do. 'What are you going do now?' You know, sometimes you have this goal, you have these aspirations, and then you get there and you go, 'Is this it? Or am I supposed to do more with it?' I think there's always a social responsibility. With him, that is his primary focus. Does he know how to do it? Does he know what he's talking about? A lot of times with folks, the answer is no."

"With Keef, that could be the answer, too," Morse also explained. "You don't have to have it all figured out. A lot of times folks think they do. People love to be social justice warriors."

You can watch both seasons of Woke on Hulu, just don't get too excited to see a third season on the streamer.
