- Adult Swim's animated comedy, Smiling Friends, will conclude after its third season, as announced by creators Michael Cusack and Zach Hadel.
- The creators stated they felt creatively accomplished but also “burnt out” after years of developing the show, wishing to end it while it still felt strong.
- They emphasised that continuing under creative strain would be unfair to themselves and the audience, preferring to avoid producing 'half-hearted' content.
- Despite the main run of Season 3 concluding in November, two additional episodes, produced alongside the third season, are scheduled for release on 12 April.
- Cusack and Hadel confirmed the decision to end the show was theirs and supported by the network, and they plan to continue collaborating on future projects, having recently launched Zam Studios.
