The SHOCKING Truth Why Fast N" Loud Got Canceled

The SHOCKING Truth Why Fast N" Loud Got Canceled
The television world was rocked when "Fast and Loud," a show that turned rust into gold, vanished without warning. For years, millions watched Richard Rawlings transform forgotten cars into masterpieces, making him a household name. Then, suddenly, the engines went silent. From cast departures to public feuds, the show's behind-the-scenes tensions rivaled its on-screen excitement. Did the Discovery Channel's hit series fall victim to its own success, or was there a darker truth behind its abrupt end? Join us as we dissect the shocking truth why Fast N" Loud got canceled.

I stopped watching after Aaron left.

[@randallbates9020]

Actually I do believe that when Aaron left a big piece of the show left with him. I think the best car they ever built was the Falcon Aaron raced up Pikes Peak. That was a unique and very cool car and a fantastic episode. Just my stinky opinion.

[@axlewheel6457]

I always thought Aaron was the brains and Richard was the money man.

[@hotrodZack1948]

Watching Richard get all wasted and obnoxious at pebble beach kinda showed me what kinda dude he is.

[@mbur3689]

This should have just been a short

[@nataleesabala5287]

RICHARD SHOULD HAVE BEEEN A LITTLE MORE HUMBLE.

[@scottyskydog]

Never cared for Richard! Found him to be superficial and self centered!

[@donwest5387]

Aron Kaufman was the brains

[@daleliske9757]

Loved seeing Richard lose his ass at an auction because of the low bids on his cars at no reserve. Guess that shows you just how "great" his builds were.!

[@scottgohr7141]

Never been a Rollings fan.

[@WickedWhirled]

The end of his show had zero effect in the classic car hobby, maybe for dreaming TV watchers

[@mikesstickers]

Everything about that guy has always made me cringe.

[@06colkurtz]

Rollings was an ass. He damaged himself. And he destroyed his own show.

[@Vickyvee97]

I stopped watching when Aaron left as well. Aaron was the soul of the show.

[@annettescott9623]

I got tire of watching Rollings run his fingers through his hair!🙄

[@curtisgivans6624]

I stopped watching when Aaron left it was not the same

[@richardshiffka1110]

Yes with the more success of fast and loud the bigger Richard's head got so only knew it would not last too long

[@williamharmon3076]

This is the way most automotive series shows wind-up, they all operate on the same premise, drama, meeting impossible deadlines, tensions, between coworkers pulling off one miracle, and on to the next one, American hot rod...American chopper monster garage, west coast choppers, Overhauling, Unique auto, after awhile its not about the cars anymore and more about the personalities of the guys building them...

[@DestroyAllorNothing]

Rawlings can’t change the oil I’m any vehicle.

[@markcollins457]

I watched the show at the beginning but similar to OCC the arrogant theme gets old . Rawlings buddy Dennis Collins spun his show into a consistent well rounded program. Fast and Loud was something new and different but it faded as people left and Rawlings in your face attitude gets old.

[@Zombieou812]

he tried to give a friend of mine his room key at SEMA. she declined

[@TheSteve1175]

When Aaron left, I quit watching 😮

[@jasoncooney3595]

I always thought Richard was kind of a dick. They rarely rebuilt a car that was rusty. If they found a lot of rust in one they sent it down the road. Aaron was the one holding it all together

Richard Rawlings looks exactly like a older Justin Bieber .

[@woodsandson1]

Best thing from this show is Dennis Collins. His show is awesome. His finds and his knowledge is truly good for the hobby.

[@drewt1081]

Without Aaron the show lacked. The discovery channel helped kill it also. The scripted "reality" shows ruined television. Most people hate Trump because he fired Omarosa for Christ's sake. Reality TV sucks!

[@cakemasterflex69]

Aaron kuafman was the heart of that show. Once he left it all started to crumble. Leaving richard to polish a turd. Aaron was the purest. Richard was a money hungry slime ball

[@barrywinslow9798]

Drinking alot and arrogant mannerism turned me away.

[@Herecomesthethruth]

Was simple,Richard had the money. Aaron had the brains

[@1EliPrice]

I love the fact that people got upset at the shop manager and owner for trying to prevent a person with a severe lung disease from potentially dying from exposure to the fumes and chemicals from a garage. Big mean jerks.

[@paulfletcher3998]

Richard did shit. Aaron completely carried Gas Monkey.

[@ronaldoleksy8264]

The race with Big Chief .Richard cheated. Big Chief won

[@artworkbysteve1]

Never trust a used car salesman

[@raginroadrunner]

You lose or run off good people....the kiss of death..

[@billammann9807]

I guess reality is not a winning game for the general public. Most of these shows are based on a scripted situation.

[@mojorocketman]

For what many of his cars sold for, it always seemed like they spent far more money than the selling price, and that didn't even include the labor cost. It seemed very unrealistic after a while. Most of his cars did terrible at auctions. It was still fun to watch especially during covid lockdown, I binge watched as many car shows as possible.

[@raypeters4525]

RAWLINGS HAS A SOUR OVERBEARING PERSONALITY !

[@mickeyflowers]

I'm glad it's gone, and I'm glad he's gone. Aaron and the rest of the crew made the show interesting since they built the cars, Ricky was the clown. Good riddance, Ricky!

[@pmd7771969]

Give Aaron his own show.

[@jorgeirizarry5971]

He did in fact destroy many cars 😂.

[@kbschulze]

To self centered, big headed. Thinks he’s all that but he’s not.

[@krisg3818]

I liked the show the earlier years of the show. I still watched after aaron left but was never the same

[@darrenmurphy7410]

The best part of the show was Aaron & Dennis. Real people. Richard is a drunkard. Period.

[@ChesRich]

Richard thinks he is all it.he aint

[@bryangoodwin6626]

Rawlings was always a ball bag.

[@1krista1969]

RR was an all out Narcissist. I usually don't watch US car shows except for Roadkill. They all focus on the specific personality and not the cars they hack up. Its like the difference between American football and rugby - all show, lots of advertising, chatter and noise but little substance and action. Americans are good at making boring stuff somewhat exciting by trying to talk it up with alot of drama and fake bling.

[@rollin19]

It's too bad his viewers just wanna praise him but the guy needs to learn to build something himself.

[@trailboss3131]

The car rebuilders I know don't want to touch old rusty vehicles. Maybe a minimum of rust. They have reputation to uphold, and rusty vehicles are hard to restore.

[@georgef1176]

Pretty sure Richard is making more money just flipping cars without the show. Can’t deny his success. I’m glad he made it. Dude was broke and living on a couch and he became a millionaire in 10 short years. Arron was a big part sure but Richard had the vision and made it happen.

[@DonaldGillespie-gl1sv]

Junk to gold! That's a joke. He has been sued for the junk he built including by Dale Earnhart Jr. I personally seen and repaired some of his work. Sad sad work.

[@privateprivate1865]

Richard never Built shjt

[@smallthings6590]

I worked for a company with a reality TV show... Theres always dark shit behind the scenes.

[@67LOCsiNYC]

I remember when Pimp My Ride used Gas Monkey garage in the later seasons

[@jimmulderig743]

The fame took him from what made him. Still cool guy.

[@SionisMills]

Thanks for sharing 👍

[@chmwatson]

I'm glad that Richard had the business savvy to push past the corporate company "control" seemingly selling part of his soul for the possibility of unknown opportunity. I think his company is better off as they are now controlling their own dialogue and choices in their own format than what was mandated by bean & rating counters to generate whatever drama they feel is the flavour of the season 🙄 Content is a funny thing. You can't cater to the masses. It won't work. Find your groove. Hold the line. I had the good fortune to tour the facility the other day. I was enthralled by many of the creations on 4 wheels. My wife was in love with some of the custom furniture! Aaron was an AMAZING host showing us around with genuine gratitude and interest that we were there. THANK YOU guys to ALL of you that put your Blood, Sweat and Gears into the workings of this amazing non-corporate run business!!

[@brianallen506]

A lot of good tv shows are gone.

[@dariocastro9079]

and now he restored/heavy modified 3 originals ferraris... so he don't care....let him be...

[@danmccollister4840]

The two made a great team won’t work without either one.

[@motorvaderlapstrake7238]

I didn't think RR was that bad. No one can deny the impact his personality alone had to not only the show but also to the car world in general. The guy is no doubt, a genuine car guy.

[@anonymousanonymous8306]

Rawlings is a total goon in the best way and yall don't get that he's acting a character. He's a tiresome boor by design and i enjoyed it.

[@jamessharp9790]

It was a way too hyperbolic drama from day one anyway. Not near enough tech and far too much image and attitude. Most of the builds ended up with over the top tasteless aesthetics.

[@cademiller5691]

They have a KZbin channel now. Way better than the show ever was.

[@donnyirish190]

OCC WITH CARS....

[@Dutchy-7236]

He still does this just on KZbin now it’s a lil different but pretty much the same

[@TurdFerguson-td9nx]

I miss shows like that, not really any good ones these days

[@glenallsopp280]

Discover was the problem and always have been

[@brianlackie5093]

His timing was key to his success. I used to watch the show and yeah it was a good show and I been watching the old episodes on Max lately and he's talking about $2,000 to rebuild an engine and its hilarious. Now you can't buy anything for an antique car for $2,000. And at the end of the show at shows how much you spend in his prophet, his prophets wouldn't make sense for a modern times. There's no way a business could function off of that little bit on a weekly basis unless Discovery was pouring money into the pot which I'm sure they did

[@jonb9633]

I wonder if I could make a similar show about my accounting job.

[@ericculver9700]

One thing is for sure Richard Rawlins is a good businessman. That's obvious, however, Aaron was and still is ONE HELL of a car builder. That being said, although Richard is doing fine without Aaron. I believe Richard needed Aaron a heck of a lot more than Aaron needed Richard. Aaron has a talent that will give him a very well paying job anytime or anyplace he goes. I'm willing to bet you their isn't a shop in the United States. Or in Europe that wouldn't give Aaron a job if they could afford him .

[@TinkmasterOverSpark]

Never heard of this show but like every other "reality" tv show....it doesn't sound like it was close to reality.

[@curtisshaffer295]

Richard is a drunk and I bet has the mood swings that goes with it I quit watching shortly after Aaron left he made the show especially from the beginning and when he left it was a matter of time

[@darylarthur4305]

I took. STOPPED watching when Arron left.

[@paddyboycooper8858]

discovery killed that show just like they did street outlaws. Richard even told rogan how controlling discovery was and everything he did on social media had to be approved

[@rogerfarmer536]

Yes he must have been a repuklin I didn't like it that he walked around telling others what to do and drank beer all the time but the show was ok

[@The.Living.Dead.Gurl0233]

Let’s be real. Richard Rawlins isn’t much more than a stereotypical slimy used car salesman. Aron Kaufman was the true gem on that show and like everyone else, I stopped watching when he left. I assumed that’s why the show was cancelled. It lost its star so it lost its audience.

[@MONEYBAGS603]

so much hate from guys who know nothing about business or cars lol. I loved the show

[@codywhitfield9529]

Watch the episodes, they were both lazy and were doing shit work. They both refused to do their jobs On Camera. Yes there was a spot well before that the entire team gave their time for the charity. It was well before they were relieved of their employment.

[@wesleybroughton3938]

Every TV show is hopped up Gold Rush pawn store storage auction they're all hopped up to make a show people need to have a little common sense

[@aarongarcia8226]

I’m a big car guy and I like watching shows like such , But I never seen this show and I didn’t even know this guy’s name ! 😊 I remember the 405 boys from street outlaws punk him , 😆

[@Stringbeanf]

When they did the pikes peak hill climb racing when arron drove the falcon I could have met them but I didn't get to cause I was part of the staff at one of the turns and we went right pass them and when they were on the top of the ramp in downtown Colorado Springs. I was pretty pissed. I absolutely love the show and miss watching it.

[@razordowntheroad]

I stopped watching the day Arron left . After Arron all that was left was the old guy and his testosterone WOOH . AND RICHARD NEVER PICKED UP ANY TOOL BECAUSE HE THOUGHT HE WAS THE TOOL AND I got tired of it , never watched again seeya gaslightgarage

[@weskirkland5850]

I wouldn;t say rocked...
