However, the series was soon picked up by Spike TV, a cable channel now known as Paramount Network. In 2020, the program was once again canceled, this time after its 32nd season. Despite its cancellation, production of a 33rd season began in September 2020, with the intentions  of an international broadcast. In 2021, it was announced that Fox Nation picked up the show.
