Why has Queen of the South been cancelled?
This evening, Monday, March 8, USA Network revealed series five of Queen of the South will be the drama s last.
An official reason as to why the show is coming to an end hasn t been given but it may simply be because it has run its course.
In the very beginning, flash-forward moments promised fans a future where Teresa will walk around as the White Queen, since she is always seen wearing white suits.
These flash-forward scenes also showed how Teresa would become one of the richest drug cartel bosses in the world and given the success of her business so far, it does seem to be heading that way.
In episode five, after having an intimate heart-to-heart, James and Teresa slept together.
Fans had been waiting for this since the first series, so it was a welcomed moment in Queen of the South.
Sadly, when he felt she questioned his loyalty at the end of series three, James left, going off with the CIA in order to try and protect her from within enemy lines.
