Season 17 will be its last!


Oxygen is rebranding into a true crime network beginning this summer and dropping all programming that doesn't focus on true crime including BGC.

Unless another network picks it up, which I doubt will happen, it's bon voyage ratchet hoes! Guess they'll have to get their thirst quenched solely on instagram!

I'm actually glad to hear this. This show went down the drain years ago and I only kept watching out of loyalty. Even though the last two seasons (15 & 16) were pretty good, I'm still over BGC. It's stupid and I don't like the message it sends out. I don't like how people think you're irrelevant if you're not starting drama 24/7 and you're just being a genuinely nice person.

Snapped is actually my favorite Oxygen show so this is really good news. I was worried they might cancel it a while back until I read it was their second biggest show (behind BGC). Then, they started creating all these spin-offs so I knew it was safe.

I'm a big fan of true-crime documentary type shows and I think it's a good look for Oxygen. If you look at their other programs and how often they're rotating shows in and out, you can tell they were struggling to find their niche in the Cable TV world and their content wasn't connecting with the audience. Nothing they put on popped like BGC or Snapped, which is why they started branching out both of those brands and creating spin-offs. BGC has been slipping in the ratings while Snapped has been on the rise.

It's definitely time for BGC to go. It's been time. I will finish this last season but I'm excited that I won't be tempted to watch this show again.

It's been nice chatting with you dirty heffas over the years!

^^Same^^ I can't believe I've been a part of the IMDB BGC board for almost 10 years now. I was way too young to even be watching this show but I was addicted. It's been a good run.

nooooooo!!! this was the only reality show I watched! nothing can replace bgc. :(

It would've been nice to hit 20 seasons but i guess 17 will do. Sad but it's time.

Didn't they say this after BGC13 though? I feel like they'll take a break and bring it back like they did with BGC14.

Really stupid of them to cancel the show. Hopefully another network picks it up.

Forget the haters, cause somebody loves ya!

Nooooo they should at least do one more Season of All Star battle.

I really wsh someone could pitch the idea or having a basketballwives theme bgc show. Maybe it can be picked up by VH1. It should follow fanfavs and have them go on trips where someone nds up fighting, but really just be abou them, their drama, and their hustle. Bad Girls World or some *beep*

I hope they will finally add the series to Hulu!!

Do you think that will ever happen?

Like, literally every other reality show I watch is on Hulu except BGC
