"Awkward" is losing its creator. Showrunner Lauren Iungerich and MTV have mutually decided to part ways, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
"Awkward is a wonderful series and we appreciate the creativity and devotion Lauren brought to this show," MTV programming president Susanne Daniels said in a statement. "We wish her the best in her new ventures."
Iungerich will finish the current production on the third season which wraps Thursday. The series will return for the second half of its 20-episode order in October.
A search for a new showrunner for a potential fourth season of the comedy is under way.
