Adult Swim‘s adult animated comedy Smiling Friends is coming to an end. Series creators Michael Cusack and Zach Hadel made the announcement in an audio message on Adult Swim’s X account.
Along with the bad news, there was some good one. While the eight-episode Season 3 of Smiling Friends ended its Adult Swim run on Nov. 30, fans have not seen the last of it. Cusack and Hadel unveiled that two extra episodes will be released on April 12 but made it clear that that they are “little stragglers, little rogue planets out there, not thematically related” and not conceived as a series finale, leaving the door open to revisit the series in the future with new episodes
My Boys.
Damn. I wanted to see more, but full respect for doing a solid run and ending it before your ideas turn to shit.
Oh wow. I thought this series would keep going for at least a while. It’s good that they’re not going to drag it out forever but I would’ve liked at least one more season :/
I absolutely loved Smiling Friends! It was just the right amount of chaos and deadpan humour. Pretty sad there won’t be more but I get it, good luck on the next series!
