AMC Networks CEO Christina Spade recently exited the company, which announced it is laying off 20 percent of its U.S. staff and implementing write-downs for up to $475 million as it restructures its business.

Peter Ocko was showrunner for the series about a utopian colony on the Moon where scientists tried to solve Earth's problems.

It stars Dominic Monaghan, Emma McDonald, Amara Karan, Ayelet Zurer, Joe Manganiello, Kadeem Hardison and Yazzmin Newell.
