US sitcom Fresh Off The Boat was officially cancelled today, and the internet, shady as ever, wasted absolutely no time in congratulating Constance Wu on the news.
In case you somehow forgot, the star made headlines last year when she reacted to the news that her show had been renewed with anger and disbelief.
She even commented “dislike” on an Instagram post about the show getting picked up for a sixth season.
Wu later clarified her outburst in a statement, saying that while she was proud to be a part of the comedy, its renewal got in the way of another project that would have challenged her as an artist.

Constance Wu, who starred in Crazy Rich Asians and this year’s excellent Hustlers, will next voice a character in the animated film Wish Dragon.
She has not yet made a public comment on Fresh Off The Boat coming to an end.
He co-star Randall Park, however, posted a lengthy statement to Instagram, praising the “groundbreaking” series as “a really great show made by incredibly talented people.”
He thanked the cast of the show, but did not single out or tag Wu. We’re sure that doesn’t mean anything, though, and we won’t read anything into it.
