“If this is true I might actually quit watching OG lmao it’s been dull as hell for years and I don’t think this new chick will help that. User tankbarzal wrote, “I’ve been thinking that cancelling the show is the only way I’d stop watching but honestly this could be it.”
In fact, even some of the cast members themselves seem opposed to the idea. When Mackenzie McKee was being considered for the role, Catelynn Lowell made it very clear that she wasn’t happy with the idea. “They can’t [bring in another girl to our show] because we’re the OG’s, the original girls,” she said at the time. “If you do that, it won’t be the original girls anymore.” Kailyn agreed with the senitment.
But not everyone was quite so worked up about this idea.

… At least, theoretically. We were unable to find any fans who had anything positive to say about the change. Even those who are a fan of Cheyenne and Cory have no interest in her becoming part of the Teen Mom OG cast.
Is it possible that MTV has just made a decision that will ultimately mean the demise of the Teen Mom franchise? With masses of fans threatening to stop watching the show after a season of questionable ratings, it’s no wonder that many believe that Teen Mom may be on its last legs as a whole. In fact, many of the cast member seem to be attempting to secure spin-offs and new shows in case their main source of income tanks soon.
