On Twitter, fans also mourned the cancellation of "High Fidelity," while also calling out Hulu for not "appreciating" Kravitz enough.

"High Fidelity" follows Kravit's character Rob, a record store owner in Brooklyn, as she reflects on past relationships and explores her love of music. The Hulu show is a gender-bending reboot of the 2000 rom-com of the same name.

Representatives for Hulu didn't immediately respond to Insider's requests for comment.
