BET’s ‘106 and Park’ Gets Cancelled, Becomes ‘Digital-Only’

BET's 106 & Park has had a great run and will still live digitally on BET.com, however the network has made the decision to remove it from it's television lineup after a 14-year run.
Aside from that, the 106 & Park brand will continue to produce its annual New Year's Eve show,106 & PARTY, along with live event experiences at the BET Awards and BET Experience.
BET's President, Stephen Hill issued the following statement:
"We all have our favorite moments from the show that has put youth culture on television daily since the first year of this century. We have pride in being involved with the show that has welcomed almost every movie star, music superstar and fresh-faced talent you can name (you can even throw in a first lady). We've all laughed with and been entertained by the young men and women hosts that have charmed us at 6 p.m. (and more recently 5 p.m.) each weekday."
It's been a great 14 year run as America's top music/variety show on cable. And now that very valuable brand is going to take its talents to the digital realm. The interactive brand you helped build, 106 & Park, is alive and well…and it's moving to the space in which our audience NOW interacts with music the most; online. It'll be very exciting to connect with the millions of people that are already engaged with 106 & Park and other BET digital and social media entities and bring content that will further evolve the 106 & Park brand…and enhance the overall BET Networks brand. As we transition to the digital space, we look to continue 106 & Park's role as both a leader of and a mirror to youth culture. We'll have more information to share about how that is to roll out very soon.
