Disney Junior has responded to the internet concern that Doc McStuffins had been cancelled and will not return for a fifth season.
Creator Chris Nee took to Twitter to react to the campaign.
I have spent the morning in tears watching the love being spread for an idea I had in the shower. #DocMcStuffins #RenewDocMcStuffins

In response, Disney Channel posted the following message:
We'll be delivering more 'Doc McStuffins' episodes, beloved characters and great stories, for a long time to come! We're in the midst of production on season four which introduces a new setting, 'McStuffins Toy Hospital,' new music and new characters in addition to Doc, Stuffy, Lambie, Hallie and other established, popular characters. A touring children's museum exhibit launches at the Indianapolis Children's Museum in August. #RenewDocMcStuffins#DocMcStuffins
Of course, this statement does not confirm a fifth season at the time.
