Cancelled Season 3
The show was renewed for a third season on December 2019, although some screenshots of new episodes(including an hour long Christmas episode titled "The Holiday Helper")exist on certain websites, there has been no airing of it on Netflix or availability of the season elsewhere leading to the possibility it may be scrapped and abandoned. As of December 2020, the show has currently no season 3 episodes available and therefore the studio has no plans to release season 3 on home video formats or Youtube.
