A message to the loyal fans of That Metal Show from Eddie, Jim & Don:
We are sorry to report that VH1 Classic will not continue to make any new episodes of That Metal Show. It has been an incredible run of eight years, roughly 125 episodes and some really cool specials. The global response to TMS has been simply amazing, and we will be eternally grateful for the support from the rock and metal fans that have showed us so much love. We truly would have never made it as long as we did without you! A huge thanks also to the great crews we had over the years both in NYC and Los Angeles, to our producer Jeff Baumgardner, and to all the executives at VH1. And finally, thanks to the hundreds of artists that joined us on our set, had fun with us, shared their stories and many, many laughs. From the biggest names in rock history, to the up-and-comers: we thank you all for being a part of it.
Of course we very much want to keep That Metal Show alive, and with the blessing of VH1 Classic, we’ve got the keys to the show and are currently searching for a new home. We’re not sure where we’ll land, but we hope to be back in our studio and your living rooms as soon as possible. In the meantime, keep an eye out for us on the road and come say, “Hello.”
Thank you for watching all these years, and we’ll keep you posted as soon as we have news to share.

Hey man. Huge fan. I’m sorry to hear that you guys aren’t being funded. People care more the Kardasians n dumb fuckers than shit that actually matters. Its just another attack on the Metal community. I’m sorry man. I really hope someone else sees how kickass you guys are and give ya a chance. Please keep all your metalheads like myself updated. Rock on brother.

“it’s a FAREWELL TOUR from now on!”
Hell Ed, if you are looking for a new home for TMS, come on down to Austin. You can do the show at my place. Might have to rearrange the furniture but you are always welcome.
Thanks for the invite, I don’t rule out anything!
Bummed to read that VH1 Classic will not continue new episodes of That Metal Show. I enjoy all segments of the show and enjoy you hosts debating the various topics. Sometimes my opinion varies from you guys, but that’s what makes it all fun. That Metal Show was responsible for getting me into new releases/bands that I may never have known about, so I thank you for that. Hope you are able to land the program elsewhere…..
Thanks for all those shows! Rock on
