The series was canceled in an announcement from [=AnimatedJames=] during March of 2015, as he felt that he was ignorant about the subject of friendship. Since then, no remakes have been announced, and only a pilot and some of episode two have been released. Later, on February 2, 2016, [=AnimatedJames=] made a new animation, a music video called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOueMzKYbP0 "Creative Types"]], which featured the characters of ''C Students'' a few years later.

-> '''August:''' Oh... Well when you put it like that you make it seem like the worst thing ever.

''C Students'' is based off of an 11 minute short called Cancer Crusaders. Cancer Crusaders was intended as the pilot to a series called ''Seniors.'' ''Seniors'' was about seven main characters, all high school seniors, and were fictitious versions of the voice actors themselves. Being an independent project, however, ''Seniors'' went through Development Hell because of many factors, including voice actors taking forever to record their lines, recording their lines with very poor hardware, [=AnimatedJames=] not hearing back from the people involved for months at a time, and many more. Because of this, [=AnimatedJames=] decided to cancel Seniors, and give it new life in the form of ''C Students,'' which is supposed to be easier to manage and create, having less people involved.

On October 29, 2017, Sharpness Knight Studios released a video of the ''C Students'' remake's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7fOrp1jCoA production update]]. In that video, the animated ''C Students'' web series remake project, which was in development hell, is looking for animators, voice actors, and other people to help Sharpness Knight with the story, animation, video editing, voice acting, music, sound effects, visual effects, and compositing, and is going to be a tribute to the original ''C Students'' pilot episode "Pylit". However, on November 22, 2017, he claimed that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwFtGwiATtA production for the C Students remake was canceled]] because of lack of animators and support, as well as being told a family friendly version of the show would be a bad idea.

* AbortedArc: The whole series is based off of an aborted series called ''Seniors.''

* DarkerAndEdgier: The "Creative Types" video [[spoiler:especially with Kevin's suicide attempt, Nicole's mom slapping her and the lack of the Chuck Jones type humour of the pilot]].

* NoodleIncident: What exactly did happen on the night of Kevin's and Scarlett's first date? We have no idea, because Scarlett muted Kevin as he recounted the tale. [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext It definitely had something to do with the]] Franchise/AceAttorney [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext series, that's for sure.]]

''C Students'' is a 2014 animated web series created by [[https://www.youtube.com/user/AnimatedJames AnimatedJames]] on YouTube. The story focuses on the three main characters August, Penny, and Kevin, three friends just trying to make their way through high school and all its perils, including, but not limited to: [[AlphaBitch Alpha Bitches]], relationships, sex, insane teachers, creepy twins, Italian bullies, swearing, and Creator/ChuckJones cartoon physics.

Later, on October 2017, [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCk9_Fxem5LnI2s1Q04st1Kg Sharpness Knight]], one of [=AnimatedJames=]'s fans, has announced that a new animated remake of ''C Students'' is in production by his animation studio [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC925b8Y7gMKChQbxW5LUfTQ Sharpness Knight Studios]], but unlike the original pilot, the new remake is going to be suitable for children. The remake is in development, so Sharpness Knight, who is the developer for the remake, is looking for animators and voice actors (including the original creator [=AnimatedJames=] himself) to help out with the remake. Later the same month, he uploaded two videos for the new ''C Students'' remake, which are the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOqh4tzzvBU sneak peek (with archived footage from the original pilot)]] and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NphydSYHEWU new intro]], to YouTube.

On December 9, 2017, after the cancellation of the animated ''C Students'' web series remake, Sharpness Knight decided to create a series of animated YouTube short films based on ''C Students''. The name of that series is ''C Students Shorts''. The short film series began with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qMI7Cg5AYk "Kevin's New Outfit"]], which is the very first short of that series. In that short film, Kevin is choosing an outfit for his first day at Hartlane High School as a senior student. The short took place before the events of the original ''C Students'' pilot episode "Pylit".
