Another said: "I thought I knew heartbreak when Netflix canceled GLOW. Then they canceled The Society, Teenage Bounty Hunters and I Am Not Okay With This. Then I thought rock bottom was Julie and the Phantoms getting canceled. But now Baby-Sitters Club too?! I HAVE NOTHING LEFT."

A third added: "This one hurts. I wasn't a Baby Sitter's Club fan growing up, but the show was refreshing and just, like, good to its core."
Another fan queried whether there was any chance that the show could get a new lease of life on another platform, writing: "Wondering if there is any hope of the series getting picked up elsewhere? There is enough source material to sustain the show for years beyond when the current stars outgrow their roles."
Are you sad the series won't be returning with more episodes?
Reacting to the news of the show's cancellation, creator and showrunner Rachel Shukert said in a statement: "I have wanted to be a part of the world Ann M. Martin created since I was 7 years old, and for two amazing seasons I actually got to be. It was a dream come true."

"Thank you to Walden Media and to Netflix for giving us the opportunity to introduce Kristy, Claudia, Stacey, Mary Anne, Dawn, Jessi and Mallory to a new generation of fans who I know will love them as much as we do for years to come."
