The ’90s have been canceled — at least at Netflix .

The streamer has pulled the plug on That ’90s Show , its sequel series to That ’70s Show , after two seasons. Kurtwood Smith, who starred as Red Forman, shared news of the the series’ cancelation on Instagram on Thursday night. He also said that producers would shop the show to other distributors in hopes of finding it new life elsewhere.

“I know you have been asking me when Season 3 is coming, but I have tough news…Netflix will not be renewing,” Smith wrote. “I just want to take a minute to say THANK YOU to all of the fans everywhere who supported and watched the show. You have come up to me in random parts of the world when I’m traveling and reached out to me through social media and just been so wonderful. I’ve loved every minute of getting to bring Grandpa Red to life for you all.”

“I’ve said it before but it’s worth mentioning again… this show had so much heart behind it and the most wonderful cast, writers, directors, producers and crew an actor could hope to work with,” Smith continued. “Thanks for letting Red and Kitty, their grandkid, all their grandkids friends and neighbors, the original cast members of That 70’s Show and all of our wonderful guest cast members entertain you for two seasons. To steal Red Forman’s words…we aren’t going to be dumbasses…we will shop the show, because good grandparents would try hard to get these kids graduated from high school.”
