  "account": "Hulu and Onyx Collective's crime comedy series \"Deli Boys\" will not return for a third season, according to recent reports. Despite receiving a high 98% approval rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes, the show failed to attract a large enough audience to warrant additional episodes. The second season concluded in May. The cast included Asif Ali, Saagar Shaikh, Poorna Jagannathan, Fred Armisen, Andrew Rannells, Kumail Nanjiani, Lilly Singh, Robin Thede, and Tan France. Season 2 focused on Pakistani American brothers managing a family criminal empire, with Max Sugar (played by Armisen) posing a threat to their operations. The series was celebrated for its South Asian representation, both in front of and behind the camera, and was created by Abdullah Saeed, who also served as the series creator.",
