Popular MTV Show Canceled After 46 Seasons

According to sources familiar with the matter, the cast and crew of Ridiculousness were notified last week that the current season will be the show’s final one, as reported by TMZ.

Ridiculousness debuted in 2011 and is hosted by Rob Dyrdek alongside Steelo Brim and Lauren “Lolo” Wood. The series has produced over 40 seasons and more than 900 episodes. Its IMDb description states, “Rob Dyrdek shows us some of the funniest videos with two of his friends,” noting the show’s format.

The report added that the show went off-air in July and was scheduled to return in January. However, MTV now plans to broadcast previously filmed first-run episodes through 2026, with no new episodes in production.

Sources also indicated that MTV is currently undergoing a rebranding process, aiming to introduce new formats, creative voices, and “refreshed” programming to shape its future direction.

Despite the cancellation, Ridiculousness will continue to be aired on MTV, and selected seasons will be accessible for streaming on Paramount+.

The cancellation comes two years after former co-host Chanel West Coast left the show in 2023.

After her departure, Chanel explained her reasons: “I’ve been manifesting this since I was a little girl,” she said. “I have video clips when I was a kid, being like, ‘This is my TV show. It’s better than MTV and VH1.’ And I was saying that when I was eight, so we’ve really manifested where we are now.”

The Ridiculousness team also acknowledged Chanel’s contribution, celebrating her “personality, the laugh, and the presence.”

They added, “While we’ll miss Chanel on this iconic red couch, we can’t wait to see all of the amazing things she has in store for this next stage of her artistic career.”
