Bargain Block’s Keith Bynum isn’t holding back when it comes to how he feels about his show’s alleged cancellation.

The HGTV star recently shared a message with fans announcing the end of his home renovation series — which he costarred in with his partner, Evan Thomas — after four seasons. In a June 22 Instagram post, Bynum said that he came across “some of the worst people” he has “ever encountered” while working in television.

“Happy Sunday!!” Bynum, 38, began the message, which was paired alongside a carousel of recent photos from his life.

“The last six months have been a pretty wild journey,” he continued. “Our entire business and lives have been put through the ringer at the hands of a giant corporation, yet we persist lol. Though you may not be seeing us for much longer on HGTV, we’re excited that we’ve built such an amazing base of followers and we’re very excited about the future.”

He added, “Everyone always told us TV is a fickle world and they are very right. TV is full of a lot of great people, but it’s also full of some of the worst people I’ve ever encountered. Evan and I have always tried hard to stick to what we know and what we’re good at, which is being ourselves. We love you all and we’re very excited to announce what’s next soon!”

PEOPLE reached out to HGTV for comment regarding Bynum’s post on Thursday, July 3, but did not receive an immediate response.
