Beloved ABC show canceled after just two seasons as fans left 'shaking'
ABC's Claim to Fame, hosted by Kevin Jonas and Frankie Jonas, has been canceled after just two seasons, with the network saying it will make a decision about the show's future at a later date
Fans of reality TV are reeling from the news delivered by Kevin Jonas that Claim to Fame has been put on ice, with no immediate plans for revival.
Already a topic of speculation due to its absence from ABC's summer programming, Kevin has just confirmed the network's indefinite halt on the series.
Chatting with E!, Kevin revealed, "I think ABC was going in a different direction this time. It doesn't mean it's not going to happen in the future. I just haven't been told if it's going to continue right now."
Though ABC remains undecided about the future of the show, Kevin's announcement comes as a response to fan queries over the show's mysterious vanishing act, reports the Mirror US.
When ABC introduced their summer lineup earlier without any mention of Claim to Fame, fans were left scratching their heads, noticing the gap where their favorite show used to be while other staples like Bachelor in Paradise and Celebrity Family Feud made the list.
The series' fanbase, caught off guard, turned to platforms like Reddit for answers, with one lamenting, "Claim To Fame has been left off the summer schedule for 2025. :(( they canceled it? ?".
A concerned viewer expressed disappointment, saying, "This sucks! My son and I enjoyed watching it together during the summer and figuring out the mystery and laughing at how dim everyone is."
Another fan was visibly upset, commenting, "I'm shaking omfg. the worst news I've had today."
