The actor decided to focus on a happier event of the day involving his son.

After three seasons of laughs and some heartbreak, it's the end of an era for Call Me Kat.

The show finished wrapping its finale of the latest season last week. Within a day it was confirmed by Fox it would not be picking the series up for another season.


One of the show's stars, Cheyenne Jackson, took to Instagram to reflect on the wrap before Fox made their announcement. In a video of stills from the first three seasons, Jackson shared his gratitude for his time on the show and the relationships made because of it.

He captioned the post:

"Tonight is our season 3 finale and maybe our series finale. We don't know yet."
"But whatever the future brings, these past three years of making 50+ episodes of @callmekatfox are something I'll never forget and I will cherish the memories I've made and the friendships I've gained."

Once Fox confirmed the cancellation, Jackson shared another post on Instagram, sharing the tough news but focusing on the day's win thanks to his son.

He shared a photo of him holding his son Ethan with the caption:

"Yes, the guy on the right just had his sitcom cancelled, but the guy on the left just learned how to tie double shoelace knots..."
"So... the day is not completely terrible."

Many on social media expressed their shared disappointment in the cancellation but also applauded Jackson for a job well done.

"We are thankful for our partnership with Warner Bros. Television, That's Wonderful Productions, Sad Clown Productions, BBC Studios, Mayim Bialik, Jim Parsons and the entire cast and crew for their work and dedication to 'Call Me Kat'."

If you grew up in the '90s or early 2000s, you were likely one of three kids: a Cartoon Network kid, a Nickelodeon kid, or a Disney kid.

In the past year, the Nickelodeon kids have really been going through it as they discover the shows they're nostalgic for might not be as bright and airy as they seemed. The characters they loved may not have been that happy, and living the life of an actor may have not been as cool as they thought.
