Drake & Josh was a popular series on Nickelodeon that was a spin-off of The Amanda Show. The series starred Drake Bell and Josh Peck as fictional versions of themselves as step-brothers whose contrasting personalities often get them into trouble. The supporting cast included Miranda Cosgrove as Drake's younger sister Megan.

Since Drake & Josh was a series primarily aimed at kids and young adults, many of its target demographic probably just realized one day the show stopped airing new episodes. As opposed to primetime series, which get a great deal of fanfare before they end, series aimed at kids sometimes end or get canceled without the fans ever realizing.

This has left many wondering if Drake & Josh canceled. Or did the series get to end with a proper finale? Here is how Drake & Josh concluded its story, why the series ended, and why the chances of a revival are slim.
