Another Netflix series has bitten the dust.

Friends From College won't be returning for a third season, the show's co-creator Nicholas Stoller revealed on Twitter.

"Thanks to everyone who watched it. Happy Presidents’ Day!" he said.

A Netflix spokesperson later confirmed to the Hollywood Reporter that the show would not return, a month after the second season premiered on the streaming service.

"We're grateful to creators Nick Stoller and Francesca Delbanco for creating a wise, funny and supremely relatable show," the statement reads.

"We also want to thank the hard-working crew, and we raise a glass to the amazingly talented cast including Keegan-Michael Key, Fred Savage, Cobie Smulders, Nat Faxon, Annie Parisse, Jae Suh Park and Billy Eichner."

The series, which premiered in 2017, had a run of two seasons with a total of 16 episodes. Its cancellation comes shortly after Jessica Jones and The Punisher faced the axe, ending Marvel's partnership with Netflix.
