As for the fans, they were understandably shattered after hearing the news that this was the last season. One viewer was so infuriated that he even launched a petition to save the show from ending, and the petition got more than 12000 signatures.
Some of the other fans are asking them to do an episode every year and name it ‘Mock the Year’. Other fans who have been following the show since season one suggested that the show was just dead rubber now, and it is good that it is ending now, it should have ended years ago and they will continue to watch past episodes.
