'Key & Peele' To End After Current Season

'Tis a sad day for "Key & Peele" fans.

The comedy show's current season will be its last, co-creator and star Keegan-Michael Key confirmed to The Wrap on Friday. Key clarified that it was his and co-creator Jordan Peele's decision to end the show and not Comedy Central's, where it airs.

“It was just time for us to explore other things, together and apart," Key told The Wrap. "I compare it to Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor. We might make a movie and then do our own thing for three years and then come back and do another movie."

Watch the rest of the fifth and final season of "Key & Peele" on Wednesdays at 10 p.m. EST on Comedy Central.

There was a little girl
Who had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead
And when she was good
She was very, very good
But when she was bad
She was horrid.



Some of their skits are ingenious, like the Obama Anger dude. But the rest of their stuff, the bulk of it, just isn't funny to me at all. I do understand humor is a rather personal thing. My husband has a very different perspective than do I of what is funny, and so watching TV with him for comedy mostly means that I enjoy listening to him and watching him laugh until he cries. But Key & Peele, most of it, it just isn't funny for me.
