It's the plea of every fan of a canceled series these days and with good reason. If you haven't watched "A.P. Bio" yet, here is the info for you:

In the Twitter thread, O'Brien references the fact that the show was canceled once before and that fans fought for it. He said:
"I'm sad to announce that AP Bio will not be renewed for a 5th season. But mostly I'm feeling grateful right now. To all the fans who watched the show and fought for it to come back after the cancellation! And to Peacock & UTV for giving us two more seasons after that! (all 42 eps are on peacock so check them out if you haven't). This show has been one of the best experiences of my life and that's because of the hundreds of hilarious, hard-working, positive people that were involved. I'm going to name a few below but can't possibly cover everyone. So if you ever worked with us for even a day, THANK YOU!! And to you other shows, hire these people!"
