"After Shain Gandee&amp;amp;#8212;a star of MTV&amp;#x27;s West Virginia Jersey Shore-esque reality show Buckwild&amp;amp;#8212;tragically died at the young age of 21 from carbon monoxide poisoning after his truck crashed while out mudding, a lot of people wondered whether or not MTV would cancel the show, which was halfway through filming the second season. Welp, we&amp;#x27;ve got our answer: According to The Hollywood Reporter, the network has chosen to suspend filming and cancel the show. Gandee was the show&amp;#x27;s breakout star, and continuing on would have been a controversial (if not tasteless) decision. Plus, add the fact that the show portrays so much drinking and wild behavior&amp;amp;#8212;not to mention that mudding, their favorite activity, is how Gandee died&amp;amp;#8212;and I didn&amp;#x27;t see how it could continue. So, for once, I finally think a reality show is making a good call. MTV could have tried to cash in on the big ratings it would have surely gotten from showing how the cast reacted post-Gandee&amp;#x27;s death, and, to be honest, that&amp;#x27;s what many people assumed it would do. But the show&amp;#x27;s canceled, and I respect MTV for it. The show&amp;#x27;s producer, J.P. Williams, however, is making a fuss: &amp;quot;This is the network that has shows about teen pregnancy. They&amp;#x27;ll stick by a show that allows you to abandon a child, but a kid dies by accident doing what he does for a living [mudding] and they cancel the show? There&amp;#x27;s something that smells of s--- here on every level.&amp;quot; Say what? Williams, I think this is one of those times where it&amp;#x27;s better to just stayyyy quiet. You sound ridiculous. So, anyway, are you glad MTV canceled the show? Or should it have continued filming? Do you think it was a good idea to cancel Buckwild?
