MTV Cancels Ridiculousness After 46 Seasons | E! News
It’s the end of a viral era. MTV is cancelling Ridiculousness. After a whopping 46 seasons, the network won’t be renewing Ridiculousness, the series helmed by Rob Derk since 2011. According to sources familiar with the decision, MTV is shifting to feature a more curated slate of offerings with fresh formats, different creative voices, and refreshed programming. No more original episodes of Ridiculousness will be produced. However, previously produced new episodes will air through 2026 on the channel. Rob was joined on the series by co-host Sterling Stilo Brim, Lauren Lola Wood, and previously Chanel West Coast, who announced she’d be leaving the series in March 2023. After her exit, Chanel shared insight into her decision to pursue independent projects, telling E-News in July 2024, “I think this was just the natural time and uh it was it was the natural evolution of of me, you know. I think my fans saw everything I was doing outside of ridiculousness.” And I would constantly get comments and stuff like, “When are you going to have your own show? When do we get to watch this?” You know, and so it was just it was it was like the natural next step. But fans will still be able to relive the show’s take on viral videos as sources confirm all previous seasons of the series will continue to air on MTV with select seasons available on Paramount Plus.

Old man still dresses like he's in junior high
Boo
46 Seasons too many. With the "Pretty Fly For A White Guy" host, that's enough for me. 😂
Good!!!!! Stupid show
46 seasons LOL
Good Riddance!
Honestly, MTV is not salvageable. The new Trump funded owners of Paramount are going to make this network into some far right network. It’s done.
What fans she got
Thank god maybe MUSIC TELEVISION will be music television again MTV was never supposed to be reality shows it was supposed to be MUSIC VIDEOS and MUSIC related shows!!!! But you little pop tarts that weren’t around when Mtv first started wouldn’t know that
Wait a minute I had to do some math on that 46 seasons in 15 years. No wonder it’s canceled. They kept rerunning the show so are they counting the reruns too? I stopped watching it a few years ago because of the reruns and how many times can you watch some fall it was to much
23 hours of ridiculousness is just crazy tbh. I miss when mtv was actually music and would play music in the morning while I got ready for school in the morning.
You know I'm going to miss this show
I remember when MTV played videos 😢
Thanks God what a horrible show it killed mtv.
Ridiculousness and Beavis and butt-head, went together like, peanut butter and jelly, to me. Thanks for the good times. RIP 🙏 ❤😂
Chanel won't be laughing up der nomo
46?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Good.
Thank goodness it was a stupid show
I thought all those episodes were reruns 😂😂😂😂
Thank god!
46 seasons for a show doing what everyone does at home 😂
Señor Rob, thanks for the hilarious show and giving the E.U.A. the gift of your co-hosts, especially the Honourable Mrs. Chanel West Coast!
About time
MTV is a dying network as well and will be missed including the show itself
It's insane that Ridiculousness continued for 46 Seasons!!! 🥴 It should've been cancelled back in 2017. When Big Black passed away. It was never the same without him. RIP Chris🙏❤
Interesting. Ridiculousness HELD UP THAT NETWORK FOR YEARS.
Nobody wants to see you do anything Chanel. Why do you think you were the only one they could interview. And who has money like that and can keep their house clean. We were all glad to see you go and happy we never have to see you again.
What if it’s worse than we thought and they just air reruns all day instead of new content 😮
Jesus Christ people are really hating on rob in these comments. I loved what he did for mtv. Wout rob mtv wouldn't even be a thing
That sucks
So…. MTV just cancelled its entire line up? lol.
I remember the trailer.
Rob
Thank goodness
He had MTV by the nuts for 46 seasons lol. He made sooo much money from the show.
Not gonna lie I'm kinda sad about this news….. I know I know it's been clogging up MTV for a long time I get it
Mtv will still show reruns.
MTV should shock the world, and play music again.
Tosh.O ripoff
Once Chanel left the show I stopped watching 😂
all of mtv ever did is re run those shows to the ground
Thank god
Nobody asked about Chanel West Coast having her own show😂😂
I'm interested to see what direction MTV will go in next since they want to have 'refreshed programming.' This could be a good return to form for the network having more variety in it's programming and maybe more music based programming from artists. Maybe we could even get cartoons back on the network someday.
It became stale after season 3
Boo
