Canceled already?

I really enjoyed the first episode and looked forward to upcoming shows. The second show had some similar stunts – dunk contestant in cold water with snakes, waiter getting shocked, etc…I was really hoping to see different events. I figured the first show may have been a pilot, so the use of the same stunts would be appropriate in at least one following episode.

According to IMDB, 8 episodes have been filmed. However, there was no new show on 12/14/2012 even though IMDB indicates otherwise. Then, yesterday’s episode was another repeat! That’s at least the second repeat shown at the time slated for a new episode. Some video footage showed different contestants performing the same stunts, so additional episodes must have been recorded. So why show repeats?

Another point of interest/concern…according to IMDB, at least some of the contestants are actors/actresses, which leads me to believe the show is staged.

Initially, I would have given KK an 8 rating. Now, I’d give it a 4. Disappointing.

so your rating comes from assuming, that its fake?. 3 episodes at the end show a clip and tells that steve-o goes too far, something about messing with audience, so i guess thats why it got canceled. wonder if steve-o turned lights out, and let some creepy crawlers in to the crowd??.

I could tell from the promo commercials that this show wouldn't last more than one season. Seeing a full episode just confirmed it. What a disaster.

My wife and I loved the first episode. She had me keep the recording of it to show someone else. Then the second episode was built around contestants doing the same stunts as the first. She quickly judged that this would be the way every episode would be and left the room. I recorded a few more episodes to check on their content, just fast forwarding through them to see what was on. I cancelled recording the series before it finished its run. Too bad it was like this. With different stunts in each episode, each hopefully more outrageous than the last, this could have been a fun show.

Steve-O says in this interview (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdDDaOyBoRU) at 7:45 that there is going to be a second season of KK. I really hope they come up with new challenges for each episode this time.

I agree. We need more variety of games and not advertising a event happening that never shows up like what happened last season.

Great show, but the games being practically the same every week when it was on got annoying.

I came here just to see if this was established as "fake" or not. The contestants are definitely actors with every pre-staged. It's still gross/freaky/creepy for them, but they are actors and that ruined it for me.

Looks like season 2 will be airing soon...
