TLC’s hit series Here Comes Honey Boo Boo was canceled after charges that its star, Mama June, is dating a sex offender. For better or worse, its end actually means something.

As quickly as Honey Boo Boo came, there she goes—even more quickly.

TLC swiftly canceled its massively, and perhaps embarrassingly, popular reality series Here Comes Honey Boo Boo on Friday, thereby robbing off us of our voyeur look into the lives of effortlessly precocious Toddlers and Tiaras breakout Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson and her endearing, ready-to-be-gawked-at, Mountain-Dew-addicted family. (Not to mention their “little bit gay” pet pig, Glitzy.)

The abrupt end to the series, which was in pre-production for a fifth season to premiere in January 2015, comes following news that Alana’s mother, June “Mama June” Shannon, was in a relationship with a man who was convicted of molesting a young relative of Alana’s 10 years ago.
