Deadline reports that Showtime has cancelled Lisa Kudrow's comedy WEB THERAPY after four seasons. Network's president David Nevins announced the news during the TCA executive session.

The series, which originally appeared online, features 'Friends' star Kudrow stars as Fiona Wallice, the self-professed and self-serving psychotherapist who treats patients for three minutes via webcam. Among the A-list guest stars who have appeared over the seasons were Meryl Streep, Meg Ryan, Rosie O'Donnell, and Kudrow's former Friends co-star David Schwimmer.

Season 4 ended in January and featured Gwyneth Paltrow, Jon Hamm, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Matthew Perry (the fourth consecutive 'Friend' to appear on the series), Allison Janney, Lauren Graham, Craig Ferguson, Calista Flockhart, Dax Shephard, and Marie Claire Creative Director Nina Garcia into Fiona's narcissistic world.

Additionally, series co-creator, executive producer and Emmy Award winner Dan Bucatinsky reprised his role as Fiona's old assistant Jerome, along with returning guest stars Billy Crystal, Lily Tomlin, Rashida Jones, Victor Garber, Julie Claire, Jennifer Elise Cox and Tim Bagley.

WEB THERAPY is created by Kudrow, Don Roos & Dan Bucatinsky for Is or Isn't Entertainment. Bucatinsky and Kudrow serve as executive producers. Roos continues to serve as director.
