Velma – the Scooby-Doo prequel – has officially been cancelled after its 10-episode second series earlier this year.
The adult series chronicled Velma’s search for her mother who has mysteriously disappeared.
She also investigated the murders of local teenage girls.
Execs at MAX paid tribute to the show’s stars in an emotional statement to fans.
They said: “Over the past two seasons, Mindy and Charlie have created an incredibly fun and fresh world within the iconic whodunit franchise.
“While we won’t be moving forward with another season of the series, we thank them for their compelling coming-of-age storytelling, unrivaled clues, and hilarious hijinks.”
The Office star Mindy Kaling led the show’s cast, playing the esteemed role of Thelma.
Sam Richardson, Constance Wu and Glenn Howerton also starred in the series.
Despite its axe, fans appear to be elated that the ‘awful’ series won’t be back for a third instalment.
Cheering on social media, one said: “Show was so TRASH how were people liking it.”
A second wrote: “Hate watched the first two or three episodes when Velma premiered and couldn’t believe it wasn’t cancelled then.”
“Thank goodness. This show was a disgrace to the original Velma we all knew and loved,” raged a third.
While a fourth commented: “That’s what they get. Leaving out Scooby was a mistake.”
