'Teen Mom OG' Cancelled? Former Star Farrah Abraham Thinks it Should Be
After Teen Mom OG has reportedly dropped in viewership bigtime, people are asking if the MTV series will be cancelled. And according to former star Farrah Abraham, it should be.
As reported by Radar Online, the longtime reality series has been decreasing in numbers, with the season premiere on June 10 seeing 990,000 viewers, according to TV By the Numbers. June 17's show brought in 868,000, and then June 24's saw 849,000. By July, things took a turn for the worse, with July 1's episode bringing in 778,000 viewers, July 8's seeing 734,00, and July 15's with 679,000. The most recent episode, on July 22, was watched by 658,000.
Like Farrah has claimed before multiple times, her inclusion in the MTV series brought in many viewers. As Radar reports, the previous season premiere in 2017, which featured Farrah, saw a whopping 1,319,000 viewers. Now, the 28-year-old TV personality is dishing on why Teen Mom OG should be cancelled.
"No one is believing the fake story lines," she told Radar. "These other parents are super fans of the OG girls and have been fans, planned pregnancy is not what Teen Mom OG was about and now it’s okay to keep planning pregnancies to get on TV? Sad mainly for the children."
While there hasn't been any news from MTV regarding a possible cancellation, fans have been debating if Amber Portwood should be fired following her recent trouble with the law. In the early hours of July 5, the 29-year-old reality star was arrested for domestic battery against her boyfriend Andrew Glennon. Many viewers believe that if Jenelle Evans was fired from Teen Mom 2, it's only fair for Amber to be axed as well.
Only time will tell if Teen Mom OG makes any changes at all, but we at least know Farrah will always be confident that the show was better when she was in it.
