'Catfish' canceled after 9 seasons

Entertainment Sep 23, 2025

MTV just pulled the plug on "Catfish: The TV Show" after a nine-season run that started back in 2012.
The series, inspired by Nev Schulman's 2010 documentary, brought the term "catfish" into everyday language and shined a light on online relationship scams.
Even though new episodes are done, MTV will keep airing old ones while producers search for a new home for the show.

Schulman is now a licensed real estate broker in NY

After nearly a decade as host, Schulman is switching things up—he's now a licensed real estate broker in New York.
This move comes as MTV reshuffles following its merger with Paramount.
While the show wraps up, Schulman's role in exposing digital deception and shaping internet culture definitely leaves its mark.
