Love Is (stylized as Love Is ___) is an American drama television series created and produced by Mara Brock Akil and Salim Akil. Based on the Akils’ real-life relationship, the series follows a modern-day power couple in Black Hollywood balancing successful careers and family over three decades.

On July 31, 2018, it was renewed for a second season,[2] but on December 19, 2018, the series was cancelled by OWN after a woman accused Salim Akil of domestic violence in their alleged extramarital affair and for copyright infringement alleging that her screenplay was used as the basis for the series.[3]
