Jersey Shore confirms final season

MTV has confirmed that the upcoming sixth season of Jersey Shore will be its last.

This ends speculation that the network would maintain the franchise with a new cast.

The fly-on-the-wall look at a group of party-obsessed friends has been MTV’s most successful series of all time, earning consistently strong ratings throughout its five-season run. The show peaked in late 2011 at nearly 9 million US viewers and pulled in cable’s best numbers among adults 18-49. The most recent run premiered to 7.6 million viewers.

The final season premieres in Australia in late October.

MTV recently renewed spinoff Snooki & JWoww which premieres in Australia at 9pm Wednesday September 19.
