MTV has decided to cancel Good Vibes, ruling out the possibility of a second season. Created by David Gordon Green, the animated series ran for 12 episodes on MTV, from October until December 2011.
The show was paired with Beavis and Butt-Head and attracted more of a female audience than the Mike Judge series. According to Deadline, there were discussions between the cable channel and the Good Vibes producers about possible ways to keep the show on the air. Though MTV execs liked the direction of Good Vibes, the show ultimately wasn’t attracting enough viewers to justify a second season.
The series premiered opposite the sixth game of the World Series and attracted a 0.8 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 1.6 million total viewrs. That was about about half as many viewers as lead-in Beavis and Butt-Head brought in. The season (now series) finale drew just a 0.2 demo rating and 490,000 viewers.
In some ways, it was a small miracle that Good Vibes ever became a series in the first place. It was initially developed at Warner Bros. TV and FOX ordered a pilot in 2008 with Adam Brody, Alan Tudyk, Danny McBride, Debi Mazar, Jake Busey, Josh Gad and Olivia Thirlby providing the voices. FOX passed on the pilot but the producers kept working on finding the project a home. They did in 2010 and were able to keep the voice cast intact for the MTV run.
The fate of Beavis and Butt-Head, which finished its latest season on December 29th, is still up in the air.
What do you think? Are you sorry that Good Vibes has been cancelled? Did you like the animated series?

I just watched the whole season in matter of days on Netflix and looked forward to season 2. That’s disappointing ………I’m male 18-49
I love good vibes it really speaks to me as a teenager and some times I can relate if I could have 1wish it would be to have season 2 it would be the best. Thing to wish for
Bring on the second season
I love Good Vibes bring it back!!!! 8P

‘Lonnie’
live life to the fullest, cherish each moment like its your last stay up all night and watch the reruns of goodvibes until they put it back on the air.
please put the show back on, since its been off the air i think i have bout the season 1 on itunes and watch each episode over like 7 times, its is my favorite show ever, id rather have that then bevis and butthead
I honestly thought I wasn’t going to like the show, but then I found it to but funny as all get it! I found it entertaining because it was joking Jersey Shore, today’s teens, and the context was definately WAY out there! My husband also loved the show cause it reminded him of growing up in Hawaii and watching Beavis & Butt-Head.
For the love of god please run this show. Im a surfer from DE and this show was like the best thing ever to watch from me and my friends
This show was really funny could watch it all day only program i’d ever watch on MTV, they should make a second season!
This show is awesome! Im sure that it would have gotten more viewers if it was advertised more. Ive never even heard of it until I saw it on netflix. I think that was the real issue. This show is rockin and I really believe that it deserves another chance. Great job to the creators of this show, you all did an awesome job. Good luck, I hope that, against all odds, that there will be more Mondo and Woodie.
