MTV has officially cancelled their reality show Buckwild after the tragic passing of cast member Shain Gandee.
Production was stopped mid second season, as a network rep explained:
├óΓé¼┼ôGiven Shain’s tragic passing and essential presence on the show, we felt it was not appropriate to continue without him… Instead, we are working on a meaningful way to pay tribute to his memory on our air and privately.”
In honor of Shain, MTV will schedule a “day of programming dedicated to Shain in which [they] will air the entire first season of ‘Buckwild’ this weekend.”
So, so sad. But we’re glad to hear MTV is doing right by Shain.
