Even though Netflix typically does not release ratings for its shows, a source told Deadline, 'neither show drew enough viewership to secure a renewal.'
Wolf, 33, and McHale, 46, have previously enjoyed talk show success with The Daily Show and The Soup, respectively.
The streaming giant will continue to produce their other comedic talk shows Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee with Jerry Seinfeld and My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman.

Michelle Wolf took aim at Ivanka Trump on her Netflix show in July.
The comedian was encouraging her viewers to begin harassing politicians more often, and as an example of how best to engage offered up some ways to get under the first daughter's skin.
'If you see Ivanka on the street, first call her Tiffany. This will devastate her,' said Wolf.
'Then talk to her in terms she will understand. Say: "Ivanka, you’re like vaginal mesh. You were supposed to support women but now you have blood all over you and you’re the center of a thousand lawsuits."'
The episode came just two months after her polarizing performance at the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner, in which she famously poked fun at White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee-Sanders.

Not so funny now: Wolf's show debuted in May, riding the wave of buzz from her controversial and caustic White House Correspondents Dinner routine. She's seen here earlier this month

'I like Sarah, I think she's really resourceful. She burns facts and uses the ash to create a perfect smokey eye,' the comedian added. 'Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's lies.'
'I'm never really sure what to call Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Is it Sarah Sanders, is it Sarah Huckabee Sanders, is it Cousin Huckabee, is it Aunt Huckabee Sanders?' Wolf said, continuing, 'What's Uncle Tom but for white women who disappoint other white women? Ah I Know, Aunt Coulter.'
Donald Trump did not attend the dinner and he, alongside many others, were also targeted by Wolf.
'It's 2018 and I am a woman so you cannot shut me up. Unless you have Michael Cohen wire me $130,000,' said Wolf, referencing the Stormy Daniels controversy.
'You can find me on Venmo under my porn star name: Reince Priebus,' she added.

Too little too late. I canceled my account last month. Tired of their liberal filth.
