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.
This is good. To many animated series that were brilliant end in shit.
Here’s hoping whatever they have next comes quick. They were up front about not wanting to stretch Smiling Friends out forever in previous interviews.
Maybe they’ll talk some more about why they decided to pull the plug now on the let play youtube channel they have with their friends, oneyplays? Still wild that this old Newgrounds animator got the chance to make such a great show.
