Insiders revealed that the decision to renew or cancel "Idol Whirlwind" was only recently solidified.

Created by Sam Levinson, the mastermind behind "Euphoria," "Idol Whirlwind" has been a subject of debate and garnered negative reviews during its airing, potentially impacting its viewership. The initially planned six-episode first season was even shortened to five. Earlier discussions within the production team presented varied opinions about the show's future. While some cast members hinted at a possible second season, insiders disclosed that the creators never had a multi-season approach during production.
