Tiny Chef is hanging up his apron.
Nickelodeon‘s The Tiny Chef Show has been canceled after three years, with the titular pint-sized puppet receiving the news in a heartrending video shared on YouTube June 24.
«Canceled? What do you mean canceled?» Tiny Chef (voiced by Matt Hutchinson) gasped, after learning about the cancellation through a phone call. «But I have ideas that’ll blow your minds.»
Wiping away tears from his eyes, he told the voice at the other end, «I understand. I love you too.»
During its run on Nickelodeon, The Tiny Chef Show earned a Children’s and Family Emmy for Outstanding Directing for a Preschool Animated Program. It featured many cameos from their celebrity fans, including Kristen Bell, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Tamera Mowry and Danny Trejo.
According to the makers of the stop-motion comedy series, which initially began as clips on Instagram before debuting on Nickelodeon in 2022, the cancellation was «very unexpected.»
