Pour one out for another fallen soldier. After 46 seasons, MTV has officially canceled Ridiculousness, the show that dominated the channel’s airwaves for nearly 15 years.
Hosted by Rob Dyrdek, the clip show was as much of a sure thing as you can get nowadays. It was a real “death, taxes, and Ridiculousness is on MTV right now” kind of deal. And now it’s dead—or at least won’t be producing any new episodes in the future.
Let’s be honest: the show was a rip-off of Tosh.0, which was a modern take on America’s Funniest Home Videos. The only real difference between what Dyrdek was doing and what those who came before him did was the involvement of celebrity guest hosts. And, I guess, the hard-to-ignore laugh of Chanel West Coast?
