Nickelodeon has become one of the biggest places for children’s programming thanks to its decades of programming. From Spongebob Squarepants to Rugrats to iCarly, the Paramount founded cable network has been the home for countless movers and shakers. Unfortunately, not every series dodges cancellation and continues for decades. In recent news, the adorable series known as The Tiny Chef Show was revealed to be cancelled in a series of heartbreaking videos with the titular character dealing with the news. However, thanks to a massive fan campaign, the tiny connosseur has been saved from the brink, and the production team has shared a special message.
In a new Instagram post from the official The Tiny Chef Show social media account, the titular character revealed that the campaign to save the series was a success, “We promise this is our last call to action asking you to sign up for Chefs fan cwub if you haven’t yet already. The team is getting ready to turn the tiny cameras back on in Chef’s tree stump home because you all have saved the Tiny Chef! The outpouring of love messages, fan art, and donations have truly meant the world to the team. We are excited to get back to work and capture Chef’s next journey! From the biottum of or heawts, fank yew.”
The Save Tiny Chef Movement
Following the reveal that The Tiny Chef Show was canceled following its second season, the video that focused on the character crying at the news struck a chord with many fans. Breaking the hearts of viewers and non-viewers alike, the “Save Tiny Chef” Campaign was born. Rallying the troops to show their support and donate, the petition shared the following message, “In today’s world, where negativity and stress often prevail. Tiny Chef… not only entertains but also inspires children and adults alike to explore their culinary passions and embrace kindness and imagination.”
Not only did scores of fans rally behind the adorable character and his potential comeback, but celebrities got in on the action as well. Thunderbolts’ Florence Pugh and Bridesmaids’ Melissa McCarthy also participated in the campaign, proving that the Tiny Chef’s influence on the world might have been far larger than anticipated. At present, there is no word regarding when we can expect the series to return but we might be seeing the titular character in the show for years to come based on fan response.
If you’ve never checked out the series itself, here’s how The Tiny Chef Show describes its premise, “From his humble garden tree stump, an herbivore named Tiny Chef creates the world’s tiniest dishes for the world’s tiniest cooking show. He believes that children should learn how to cook and is hopeful that kids watch his cooking program. There’s never a dull moment with Chef as his spirit, charm, and cleverness help him deal with the unpredictable nature of life in a tiny kitchen. More than anything, Tiny Chef is always truly himself as he finds ingenious ways to work tiny.”
