MTV has decided to end Jersey Shore, their still-popular reality TV series, after six seasons. The final season recently wrapped production in Seaside Heights and will begin airing on October 4th.

The cable channel will also air a retrospective Jersey Shore special — Gym, Tan, Look Back — on Thursday, Sept. 6th. The special will include a first look at the final season and will air prior to the Video Music Awards. The Jersey Shore cast will make a live appearance on the red carpet during the Awards’ pre-show.

The series won’t completely leave the MTV however. The cable channel recently renewed spin-off Snooki & JWoww for a second season.

Here’s the press release from MTV:
