With Teen Mom 2 Season 5 drawing to a close in the coming weeks, speculation has already started swirling around a potential Teen Mom 2 Season 6.
MTV is notoriously mum on these things. It took more than a year's time for Teen Mom 2 Season 5 to make it to air after Season 4 came to an end.
Meanwhile, the original Teen Mom will have been off the air for 2-3 years (!) by the time it returns sans Farrah Abraham in 2015. If that really happens.
Any word on Season 6 may be a long time coming, in other words, but the success of Season 5 might lead to a relative rush job from the network.
Last night's Teen Mom 2 Season 5 Episode 23 proved once again that the baby mama drama is only getting more layered and interesting over time.
We're not even kidding. The co-parenting struggles, custody battles and new members of the Teen Mom family coming into the world make for great TV.
Does the reality show still resonate with impressionable youths?
Maybe, maybe not, since Jenelle Evans, Kailyn Lowry, Chelsea Houska and Leah Messer aren't even teens anymore, as they were on 16 & Pregnant.
At the same time, it's become a compelling drama as the fab four have come of age, and it's undeniably true that life hasn't become any more of a walk in the park.
Through it all, these girls - women, believe it or not at this point - are fighting to beat the odds and finish school (Kailyn Lowry and Chelsea Houska).
That, or they're welcoming new children (Jenelle Evans and Leah Messer), while struggling to make it work with their exes (Leah, Kailyn and Chelsea).
The celebrity factor doesn't hurt, either, from a PR standpoint.
There's no shortage of coverage given the stars' quasi-famous status, especially thanks to their own Twitter and Instagram feeds (Jenelle especially).
It's free publicity in an era of tight budgets. What's not to love?
MTV has to renew it, right? It has to know that if fans continue to watch TV online, this is a show that could continue to find its niche and even grow its audience.
