WhenSweet/Viciousfirst premiered on MTV, it was easy to categorize it as yet another superhero show.
But unlike other superhero shows, this one focused on sexual assault.
In other words, it took an issue that many shows address and built its entire show around it.

Week after week, the shows first season told Jules story not of revenge, but of healing.
And all the while, the show incorporated the stories of other survivors.
This wasnt a show that included sexual assault.
It was a showaboutsexual assault.
Thats why it was all the more heartbreaking when news broke that the showhad been cancelled.
We as a creative team and the actors, we all stand by the show.
We love the show.
And if all works out, hopefully Robinson will get to tell a few more of those stories.
