"Horace and Pete" no more. Louis C.K. has confirmed that he has ended his popular web series and there will be no more episodes following the April 2 episode.

"That was it," he said in an email for fans on Saturday, April 16 morning. "I didn't want to say, in the last email, that it was the last episode. Because I didn't want you to know, as you watched the episode, that it would be the last one. But yeah, obviously, That was it."

The series was crowdfunded and was kind of an experiment. Viewers pay various amount of money for each episode, ranging from $3 to $5. In an interview with Howard Stern, the comedian said producing the series had left him with million of dollars in debt. "I got so excited about having the show appear from nothing. So I made the first four, and I didn't tell nobody and it made a nice little amount of money. When I got to episode four, I was like, 'Hey gang, I don't have any money.' So I had to take out a line of credit," he told the radio host.

But C.K.'s informing fans via the email that the full season can be purchased for $31. "It is a singular experience to have done this show and a very very sad thing to be done doing it. I loved telling that/those story(ies). I loved working in that (fake) bar with that crew for those ten weeks," C.K. wrote.

He went on praising cast and crew which included Steve Buscemi, Edie Falco, Alan Ada and others. "After we shot the last episode, the cast crew and I put real beer on the taps at Horace and Pete's and we had a drink and we talked. I don't think we'll ever experience anything like that show again. I miss all of them," he said.
