The upcoming third season of “Victorious” will be its last.
Nickelodeon announced on Friday that the Emmy-nominated series starring Victoria Justice will not produce any more episodes — much to the chagrin of its creator, Dan Schneider.
“This was the network’s decision – not mine,” he wrote in a blog post.
Though Schneider acknowledged that Nickelodeon series rarely go beyond 60 episodes, which “Victorious” had reached, he was willing to continue.
“I would love to have made more than 60 of ‘Victorious,’” he admitted, “but that’s how it usually goes.”
The producer also asked fans to “please not be angry” with any of the show’s stars or staff.
“They all wanted ‘Victorious’ to continue – so did I,” he said.
Justice seemed more at peace with the network’s decision, tweeting, “3 Emmy nominations is not a bad send off… #GoingOutOnTop #LoveUguys :{)”
The actress will find out at the Emmy’s September 23rd ceremony whether the show won any of the categories in which it was nominated.
The final season will premier this fall.
