Is BBC Getting Canceled Over J.K. Rowling Controversy Now?

This time, though, it is not really about the writer herself.

The BBC has issued the second apology to Rowling after she has gotten another share of accusations regarding her "transphobic views" during live shows. Unexpected? Not really.

The corporation received numerous audience complaints about the discussion and the fact that the shows' hosts had failed to challenge the guests' harsh opinions on the writer's views. Whatever they mean by "challenge"...

Rowling's stance on transgender issues has been widely condemned over the years, with even some of the Harry Potter stars issuing statements that they do not support the author's views.

Despite all that, not only has the BBC apologized twice to her, but also the broadcaster has decided to renew Strike for Season 6.

The huge corporation might not be afraid of the backlash (oh, it is definitely coming) but is it really a smart move? We guess we will find out soon enough…

Nothing is set in stone about Season 6 but all signs point to the BBC being very enthusiastic about the show's continuation (and all the big bucks that it will bring).

Season 6 will be the adaptation of The Ink Black Heart, the fans-proclaimed-problematic novel that could just as easily have been called J.K. Rowling's Ink Black Heart.

It focuses on the murder of a famous YouTube creator who is targeted by haters online (she is even accused of being transphobic at some point).

Though Rowling has been vocal about the character not being based on her, still the similarities seem just a tad too convenient.

Whether the BBC will join J.K. Rowling as her partner in crime (in the Internet's opinion) or simply enjoy the very likely success of Strike's next season is unclear. Good TV is good TV, and Strike has been a fan favorite for quite some time.

Hopefully, for everyone's sake, Rowling's name will soon be out of people's mouths, and we can all continue to be amazed by her literary work and its inspired adaptations.
