Fans, cast and crew are mourning the cancellation of Netflix series Everything Sucks! after just one season.
The show, which was drenched in '90s nostalgia and often compared to cult hit Freaks and Geeks, has been axed, confirmed The Hollywood Reporter.
That's despite the show - which followed a group of teens making a movie in the fictional Boring High School - receiving praise by critics for its brand of throwback comedy.
It has a 69 per cent approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and 62 per cent on Metacritic, where it had reviewers calling it "grounded ... sweet and genuine".
"It's funny, if not clamorously so; superbly acted, by a bunch of people you never heard of; and good-hearted, without being Hallmark-ish," said Reason.com's Glenn Garvin.
"We're super proud of the show we made — and very proud that it found an audience of very passionate fans, for many of whom it became an important personal touchstone: either reflecting their current life, or an echo of their own teenage years," said executive producer Jeff Pinker.
"We are grateful to Netflix for the opportunity, but are very disheartened we won't be continuing to tell these stories."
Cast, crew and fans are already trying to save the show.

Had the “What Up With That” song from SNL stuck in my head for three days. This is a coping mechanism. Hurts but works.

Kate Messner will always be in my heart and she will always be one of my favorite characters. She deserved better. Everything Sucks deserved better. I can't believe Netflix is treating one of their best shows like shit! I'm mad. #iamkatemessner #SaveEverythingSucks

this show helped me, like many others, come to terms with my sexuality. “Everything sucks” is so important and valuable @netflix please don’t take a 2nd season away from us #iamkatemessner#reneweverythingsucks

Call Netflix. We still have a chance. Call them and tell them to renew everything sucks. If enough people do it, then they'll see how they canceled a good show. #RENEWEVERYTHINGSUCKS
