MTV's "Ridiculousness" will end after 14 years and 46 seasons.

"Ridiculousness," the inescapable comedy clip show hosted by Rob Dyrdek, will end after 14 years, USA TODAY can confirm.

The MTV series will end after its current season, according to a source familiar with the situation but not authorized to speak publicly. The network is turning its attention toward a more curated and experimental slate of programming, including new formats and fresh voices.

No more original episodes will be produced, while previously shot episodes will air through 2026. Reruns will also continue to air on MTV and stream on Paramount+.

Season 46 of the series began airing Oct. 12.

"Ridiculousness" – hosted by the former skateboard star with comedian Sterling "Steelo" Brim and Lauren "Lolo" Wood, who replaced rapper Chanel West Coast in 2024 – featured viral videos and stunt fails with commentary. "Ridiculousness" was one of the network's longest-running shows, airing on MTV since 2011.

The news comes after Bloomberg reported that MTV was paying Dyrdek "at least" $32.5 million, according to bankruptcy court documents reviewed by the business news outlet. He could have made more than $45 million a year if the series had been renewed in 2028 and 2029, the outlet reports. Superjacket Productions, Dyrdek's production company, filed for bankruptcy last month.

MTV's relationship with Dyrdek extends back much further than "Ridiculousness." The entrepreneur starred on "Rob & Big" with friend Christopher "Big Black" Boykin from 2006 to 2008, and "Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory" with Boykin and Chanel West Coast from 2009 to 2015.

A series of spinoffs of "Ridiculousness" – including "Amazingness," Messyness," "Deliciousness" and "Adorableness" – did not reach the same level of staying power on the network.
