Nickelodeon has unfortunately decided to cancel Erin & Aaron and not renew the network's live-action comedy series for a second season.
Erin & Aaron follows teenage stepsiblings Erin and Aaron as they navigate their new lives after their parents’ marriage, and find strength in their shared passion for music. The multi-camera series features original songs and performances throughout the season.
The show's cancellation was announced by Jensen Gering, who played Aaron on the series, on the actor's official Instagram page. In his post, Gering captioned a video from the series with a tribute to his co-stars and the staff who put the show together, saying:
"Our show ‘Erin & Aaron’ has come to an end.I want to thank all the fans who loved, watched and supported our show. The experience I had being a part of E&A was truly one of the best experiences I have ever had in my life. Getting to do comedy, sing and play music in one show was the best. I learned so much, worked so hard and had the time of my life. I am beyond thankful to @nickelodeon and @netflix for this amazing opportunity and for believing in me. The family that show runner @pattygarycox [Patty Gary-Cox] created along with Exec Producer and Creator Dicky Murphy and Exec Producers @seanwcunningham [Sean Cunningham], Marc Dworkin and Producer @outsmartin [Samantha Martin] was beyond what I could imagine. We had so much love and support the entire run of the show. I seriously couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Erin & Aaron premiered on Nickelodeon in the U.S. on Thursday, April 20, with season one featuring 13 episodes. The series bowed on Netflix internationally in November 2023. On Netflix, most regions carry Erin & Aaron as a Netflix Original title, except in the U.S., where it features a Nickelodeon banner, similar to That Girl Lay Lay.
Erin & Aaron stars Ava Ro (Big Top Academy) as Erin, Jensen Gering (Wickensburg) as Aaron, Larisa Oleynik (The Secret World of Alex Mack, 10 Things I Hate About You) as Sylvia, David S Jung (I Think You Should Leave, Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.) as Chuck, and Pyper Braun (Country Comfort) as Natasha. Guest stars who appeared during season one include Michael D. Cohen (Danger Force), Jack Griffo (The Thundermans), Jared Gertner, Celia Méndez, and Cyrina Fiallo.
Erin & Aaron Theme Song & More!, featuring eight songs from the series, is available on streaming services today. The soundtrack was released through Nickelodeon's partnership with Republic Records: Kids & Family.
Created and written by Dicky Murphy, Nickelodeon greenlit the pilot for Erin & Aaron in April 2020. Murphy executive produces alongside Sean Cunningham and Marc Dworkin (The Thundermans, Knight Squad). Wendy Faraone (That Girl Lay Lay, Bunk’d) directed the first three episodes.
Murphy is a homegrown Nickelodeon talent. He worked as a script manager on Zoey 101 and went on to write for iCarly, Marvin Marvin, and Danger Force, and served as a writer-producer on the network’s The Thundermans series, executive produced by Cunningham and Dworkin.
