Is Catfish season 9 cancelled or will it be renewed with one more exciting season? When will MTV release Catfish after all?
Well, now that the eighth chapter is over, fans are enthusiastically waiting for the arrival of its brand new season. In this post, we bring you all the details regarding Catfish Season 9, including the release date, cast, and other details.
Catfish Season 9: A Story Roll
Catfish is an American comedy-drama TV reality show that first aired on November 12, 2012, on MTV multimedia. Based on the 2010 released movie of the same name, this show uncovers all the truths and lies of online dating.
The show is developed by Ariel Schulman, Nev Schulman, and Max Joseph. Furthermore, Catfish Picture Company, Relativity Media (2012–2016), Critical Content (2016) in association with MTV Entertainment Studios (2021) produced this masterpiece.
The series managed to gather a huge response from the audience. However, in May 2018, the filming of the 7th season was cancelled due to sexual misdeed testimonies carried against Nev Schulman, the director of the show. As all of these allegations turned out to be baseless, season eight was released by the makers on January 20, 2020.
Catfish Season 9: When’s the release date?
After a long wait of almost two years, season 8 made a huge comeback. On January 8, 2020, the last season of Catfish was released, which turned out to be a huge hit in terms of viewership as well as ratings. Keeping an eye on the success of the show in recent years, we can undoubtedly expect to see its arrival shortly.
Nev Schulman, director as well as the host of the show, in an interview with TV Insider said “We can have these private texts through iMessage, which is something you can’t do in person,” he also added, “So in a weird way, it almost let us connect a bit more than we could traditionally.” The interview certainly confirms the renewal of Catfish Season 9.
MTV, however, renewed the show of its ninth instalment just after season 8’s finale episode but didn’t announce the release date. Due to some changes in the format of the show, during the pandemic, creators had to tweak.
Previously, the show was only filmed virtually but in the upcoming season, it’ll grace TV screens for sure. As of now, there’s been no official announcement regarding the release date of the show. As soon as we receive any information, we’ll post it right here. Til’ then, stay connected with us!
