You might be unable to watch American Gigolo on Showtime because the series has been cancelled and will not be returning for a second season.
Series Cancellation Details
Showtime made the decision to cancel the American Gigolo series, which means there will be no new episodes or subsequent seasons produced. The program, which was a modern adaptation based on the 1980 feature film of the same name, aired its first and only season consisting of eight episodes. This inaugural season concluded in October.
As a result of the cancellation, new content for the American Gigolo series is no longer being developed or broadcast.
