“PAW Patrol” wants you to know that it is not in the doghouse.
The hit children’s cartoon about rescue dogs protecting their neighborhood clarified on Friday that it had, in fact, not been canceled after White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany claimed she was another victim of the “culture of cancellation “liberal.
“No need to worry. PAW Patrol is not canceled,” the Nickelodeon Jr. show tweeted from its official account.
McEnany earlier in the day brought the show as an example of the Democrats’ overreach in their criticism of the police in light of the murder of George Floyd.
“[President Trump] He is also appalled at canceling culture and canceling culture specifically when it comes to the cops, “McEnany told reporters at a briefing on Friday.
“A few weeks ago we saw ‘PAW Patrol’, a cartoon show about police was canceled; the ‘Police’ program was canceled; ‘Live PD’ was canceled; LEGO stopped sales of its LEGO police station. “
“It is really unfortunate,” he added.
The Paw Patrol was the center of attention in early June when he tweeted on “Blackout Tuesday” that he would refrain from posting content to amplify black voices.
Many social media users seemed to prank Chase, the show’s cartoon German Shepherd Police Officer.
“DEFUND CHASE,” wrote one user in response to the message.
But the PAW Patrol episodes are still on television: The show will occupy a two-hour morning block on Nickelodeon this Sunday.
The deadline reported earlier this year that the show had been renewed in February for another season. The cubs are also slated to make their big-screen debut next year with “PAW Patrol: The Movie.”
