News of the show’s cancellation broke on Tuesday, and many fans took to social media and Reddit to express their dismay.
“And to the marvelous fans: thanks so much for your love and enthusiasm,” Covell continued. “I’ve been shown subreddits that have made my heart positively sing: the tiny details and Easter eggs you noticed made my day many times over.
