Bad news if you've been enjoying the dramatically sexy shenanigans of Michael Sheen and Lizzy Caplan on Masters of Sex — Showtime has reportedly decided not to renew the show.

As Deadline reports, the show's recently wrapped fourth season will be its last, as Showtime decided not to pick up the show for a fifth.

The show was loosely based Thomas Maier's biography of the same name and saw Sheen and Caplan play real-life sex researchers William Masters and Virginia Johnson.

Despite critical acclaim and multiple awards nominations, the show only had modest ratings.
