— -- Amy Schumer took to Twitter to assure fans that her acclaimed Comedy Central show, "Inside Amy Schumer," isn't over, a day after she sent a tweet that seemed to declare just that.

Comedy Central had already greenlighted a fifth season, so when Schumer posted in part, "We aren't making the show anymore" -- then retweeted a fan's response that she'd miss the show -- Schumer's followers were rightly confused.

The comment came in response to show writer Kurt Metzger, who made now-deleted social media statements regarding the Upright Citizen Brigade comedy troupe's banning of comedian Aaron Glaser, who had been accused on Facebook of sexual assault.

After her initial tweet, Schumer put fans at ease this morning.

The comedian explained in a series of posts: "#InsideAmySchumer is not cancelled. @ComedyCentral has provided us with a wonderful home and we couldn't be happier there. I am just touring...Doing Standup and focusing on writing more for the next year at least."

She continued, "We are slated for a season 5 but not in the foreseeable future...I'm grateful @ComedyCentral is giving me this time to work on other projects, she added before plugging one of those: "Now please grab my book #TheGirlWithTheLowerBackTattoo for now."
