Warner Bros. has cancelled Little Ellen from US comedian and former talk show host Ellen DeGeneres less than 12 months after it debuted on HBO Max.
As reported by Deadline, the animated series that was aimed at preschoolers has been scraped after two seasons, even though work on its third was said to have been completed.
A release date for season three was noted as being sometime in June, however, was pushed back earlier this year with the show now not returning at all.
Little Ellen is loosely based on the early life of Ellen DeGeneres with Laurel Emory voicing a seven-year-old version of Ellen.
20 episodes have been produced across both seasons, running for approximately 11 minutes apiece.
The reasons for this have been reported to WB being able to write these off for tax reasons, allowing the firm to wave the costs (or as its known "purchase accounting").
