"Buckwild" star Shain Gandee will be remembered in a special set to air
this Sunday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on MTV. The network provided the following
statement to MTV News:
"After careful consideration, MTV will not be moving forward with season
two of 'Buckwild' in West Virginia. We love the cast and the show and
this was not an easy decision, but given Shain's tragic passing and
essential presence on the show, we felt it was not appropriate to
continue without him. Instead, we are working on a meaningful way to pay
tribute to his memory on our air and privately.

On Sunday, we will be running a special, 'Buckwild: WV to the NYC,'
which was shot before production had begun on season two. With the
support of his parents, Dale and Loretta Gandee, we will run the tribute
following a day of programming dedicated to Shain in which we will air
the entire first season of 'Buckwild.' "
"Thanks to everyone for their thoughts and prayers during this
incredibly difficult time for our family. We have truly felt all the
love and know that Shain is resting peacefully. Shain was an incredible,
outgoing and positive person who was loved by whoever he met. We are
honored that we were able to let the world see what a wonderful son we
had. He was the best son anyone could ask for. As we look to honor him
in our lives every day moving forward, we are happy to share some of his
last moments doing what he loved best: having fun and making people
laugh," said Loretta Gandee.
The "WV to the NYC" special will also include footage shot with "Guy
Code" stars Charlamagne and Lil Duval, who visited the cast of
"Buckwild" back home in West Virginia and then took them around New York
during their first group trip to the city. The special will cap off a
marathon of the first season of "Buckwild," which will air beginning at
2 p.m. ET/PT on Sunday.
