Bondage TV series not entirely scrapped, receiving backing of the French (9)

'bondage' is the definition.
(servitude is a kind of bondage)

'tv series not entirely scrapped receiving backing of the french' is the wordplay.
'not entirely' means to remove the last letter (most but not all of the word).
'scrapped' indicates anagramming the letters.
'receiving' indicates putting letters inside.
'backing' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'of the french' becomes 'du' ('of the' in French).
'du' back-to-front is 'ud'.
'tv'+'series'='tvseries'
'tvseries' with its last letter removed is 'tvserie'.
'tvserie' with letters rearranged gives 'servite'.
'servite' enclosing 'ud' is 'SERVITUDE'.
