BET Cancels Cam Newton’s ‘106 & Sports’ After One Season

The decision follows reports of weak ratings alongside rising costs during a leadership transition at BET.

Overview

  • BET confirmed to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that it will not produce additional seasons, with the eight-episode first run remaining available across BET platforms.
  • Premiering October 15, 2025, the show ran through December 3 with Cam Newton and Ashley Nicole Moss as co-hosts, produced by SpringHill and filmed at Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta.
  • Coverage attributes the cancellation to limited audience traction and social buzz that did not justify the show’s high production overhead during a programming realignment.
  • Moss posted on X that she was saddened the series would not continue, while Newton maintains a broader media presence through his YouTube shows and an ESPN deal.
  • Newton said on his 4th & 1 podcast that he learned of the cancellation while prepping content and that he plans a nationwide college tailgate tour in fall 2026, adding he did not own the BET show.
