Teen Mom Trailer: The Final Season Begins ...
It's the beginning of the end for Teen Mom's fabulous foursome - Maci Bookout, Farrah Abraham, Amber Portwood and Catelynn Lowell - on MTV this summer.
Though the Teen Mom franchise is sticking around on the network with its second (and soon-to-be third) ensembles, the four who started it all are bowing out.
The final season, premiering next month, promises big things for Amber, Maci, Farrah and Cate. Take a look at the trailer for their upcoming swan song below:
Among this season's new challenges:
- Amber Portwood's suicide attempt, 911 calls, meltdowns in front of Gary, loss of custody of Leah, and ongoing legal woes (she's in jail right now).
- Catelynn and her fiance Tyler Baltierra wonder if putting daughter Carly up for adoption really was the right decision ... EVERY SINGLE EPISODE.
- Farrah moving to Florida with little Sophia.
- Maci fighting with Ryan Edwards a lot.
It all starts June 12! Yeah, baby!
Teen Mom Season 4 Will Be Final Season For Original Cast
It looks like Farrah Abraham, Amber Portwood, Catelynn Lowell and Maci Bookout will be calling it a career after the upcoming fourth season of Teen Mom.
MTV confirmed this in a statement Friday. If there's any confusion this means the fourth and final season for just the cast members mentioned above.
Teen Mom 2, featuring Jenelle Evans, Leah Messer, Chelsea Houska and Kailyn Lowry just aired its second season and may still receive a third on MTV.
Meanwhile, there will be a Teen Mom 3, with the cast selected from members of the all-new 16 & Pregnant cast ... everybody clear on all this now?
"Season 4 will be the final season of Teen Mom with Maci, Catelynn, Amber and Farrah," MTV tells Us. "They will continue to be a part of our MTV family."
"We're thankful to these brave young women for sharing their stories and helping to make a positive impact on teen pregnancy prevention."
There's no specific date set for Season Four's premiere.
Sad to see the original stars retire? Amber Portwood's police run-ins should keep her in the news, but will we ever hear from Maci, Farrah and Cate again?
Farrah Abraham to Scott Disick: Racist!
Note to Farrah Abraham: stick to being a bad teen mom. Because you make a really awful Twitter combatant.
Over the weekend, this MTV reality star randomly got into a war of online words with Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick, taking the couple to task for having a second baby out of wedlock and comparing their situation to that of various single parents on Teen Mom... nevermind Kourtney and Scott's age, stable relationship and financial well-being.
Now, in light of the backlash against her critique - seriously, Farrah, it takes A LOT to force people on to the side of the Kardashians. Well done! - Abraham has Tweeted a defense of her viewpoint, writing:
4 all who misunderstood: regards to kourtney K.~ I hope she takes her relationship w/her boyfriend more serious 4 their children-takecare.
Okay. Whatever. Case closed, right? Not quite.
Farrah Abraham vs. The Kardashians: IT IS ON!
Thanks a lot, Farrah Abraham. You've forced us to take the side of the Kardashians.
Earlier today, the former Teen Mom star randomly Tweeted her reaction to Kourtney Kardashian's second pregnancy, writing: Im shocked Kourtney Kardashian is pregnant again, Did she not learn anything from TEEN MOM? Maybe its a fake pregnancy, like kims wedding SAD.
Kourtney, in response, pointed out one of the major differences between her situation and that of Farrah and her MTV co-stars, Tweeting "I'm 32 years old! I may look young, honey, but don't get it twisted."
Kardashian, of course, is also a multi-millionaire with a large support system... and that's before you consider E! producers!
Scott Disick also jumped in to this Tweet-off, referring to Abraham as "some s-it stain" and echoing his girlfriend's stance: "We're not teenagers, ya f-cking moron."
But Farrah was not to be denied! She concluded her rant with: "Guess what! Age and money honestly do not change a person's poor choice. Quit making excuses."
It's pretty difficult, but try to choose a side in this asinine feud:

Amber Portwood, Farrah Abraham & Jenelle Evans: Giving Up Their Kids to Party!
Oh, Teen Mom girls. You never cease to amuse ... or provide tabloid fodder.
Amber Portwood swore she'd learned a lesson after spending time in jail and rehab. You'd think Jenelle Evans would have learned something from pummeling Britany Truett. Farrah Abraham? She's just trying to "find herself," don'cha know.
One thing they all have in common? Giving up their babies to PAR-TAY!!!
Amber's brother, Shawn Portwood, says that despite her issues, Amber is spending more time out partying than she is reconnecting with her daughter, Leah, 2.
"At least three times a week, Amber will go out to bars and clubs," Shawn says.
Amber Portwood was spotted at the 59th Street Pub last month drinking wine, then another time, downing beers at Jimbo's Pub and Club in Anderson, Ind.
"My friends were there [at the 59th Street Pub] and said she drank damn near a whole bottle of white wine," Anderson local Shane Butt reveals to Life & Style.
Yes, they named their source, and his name is Shane Butt. Fantastic.
Teen Mom Reunion, Part 2: Who Wants to Get Pregnant Again? Who's in Jail?
Teen Mom's third season is officially in the books after Part 2 of MTV's reunion special. So how did their "checkup" with Dr. Drew go? What did we learn Tuesday night?
Picking up where last week's special left off, with Amber Portwood walking off the set after mourning her sister's crib death years ago, Dr. Drew aired a SIDS PSA.
Too little too late to help the downward spiral that is Amber, but still, class move.
Dr. Drew spent much of last week calling out Farrah for her behavior this season. This time, we spent the majority of the time catching up with Catelynn and Maci.
Catelynn and Tyler revealed that his dad, Butch, wasn't sent back to prison because of a drug test, but for violating a no-contact order and meeting with wife April.
When Catelynn's mom came on stage, Dr. Drew asked, simply, "What the hell?"
Pinsky is kind of the man after that, we'll give him credit. As is Tyler. Why?
Teen Mom Reunion: Dr. Drew Calls Out Train Wrecks
After a tumultuous season of Teen Mom, the fab four headed to L.A. for their obligatory MTV reunion special slash therapy session with Dr. Drew Pinsky.
He did not mince words.
Farrah Abraham in particular got an earful from Drew after crying about her cruel fate, missing out on her teenage years because she had a baby, etc.
I love you so much!!!! Okay, later!
While Farrah ditched Sophia with her parents to go "found herself" in Florida, she used this opportunity to tell everyone she'd changed her mind! Maybe!
Farrah doesn't know if it's in Sophia's best interest to be cared for by her personally or her grandparents in Iowa. She's also, like, so lonely in Florida!
Dr. Drew finally had to shut down the pity party, which has been building all summer and apparently didn't end with last week's Teen Mom season finale.
Telling Farrah to "add it up," the doc said, first off, to stop sniveling: "You have to let go of the fantasies of childhood," he said. "It's time to let go."
Teen Mom Season Finale Recap: See You in a Few Years, Sophia!
On the season finale of Teen Mom, everything came to a head. What did Farrah Abraham decide about moving? How did Maci Bookout leave things with Ryan Edwards? Does Gary Shirley have a career as a recording artist?
All questions we may not fully know the answers to until the reunion special and perhaps beyond, but still. Absolutely edge-of-your-seat, gripping TV.
Let's break down the third season finale of Teen Mom, THG style!
Farrah celebrated Sophia's second birthday by putting her cooking skills to work on a cake. We don't mean to sound harsh, but ... maybe it's time for a second career path? Or a different one altogether? Thing looked rank. Minus 6.
At least she tried, though. For once. Plus 3.
The motherhood thing? Not her style! Farrah is going to "grow into my own person" and "become whole again" by ditching her daughter in Iowa and going to school in Florida. Sophia will feel so loved watching this in a few years. Minus 25.
She decided to poignantly drive around and look at places that reminded her of Derek ... the guy she broke up with and accused of stalking her, and whose parents want to take Sophia away from her. Totally realistic portrayal. Minus 11.
Farrah Abraham to Mom & Daughter: PEACE OUT!
"I would never leave Sophia." - Farrah Abraham on last night's Teen Mom
Despite this proclamation, it appears the youngster did exactly that, leaving her daughter with her mother in Iowa while she "attends school" in Florida.
According to Life & Style, the reality star has been in Ft. Lauderdale for months, while her mother, Debra Danielson, is now Sophia's primary caregiver.
Was this move altruistic or purely selfish? Somewhere in the middle?
Farrah Abraham said this about her decision to leave Sophia:
"I want her [Sophia's grandmother] to be there for Sophia when I need to take care of my responsibilities, my education and earning an income for both of us."
Not that this wasn't a difficult decision. In fact, the 20-year-old admits, "I'm tugged in many different ways daily - but I don't want to limit myself or Sophia."
What do you think? Is Farrah really doing this for Sophia, or was she simply not up to the task of being a mom? She could have gone to school A LITTLE closer to home, or taken beautiful little Sophia with her to Florida. We're just saying.
Teen Mom Recap: Baby Grandma Drama
On this week's Teen Mom, Farrah Abraham butted heads with her mom regarding Sophia, while Maci made a discovery about Bentley's paternal grandmother.
Making sure Amber didn't have to work too hard (heaven forbid, what would the world be coming to), Leah's grandparents did a heck of a job pitching in as well.
Catelynn and Tyler? They're still around too. No one knows why.
Let's break down last night's episode of Teen Mom, THG style!
Farrah's plans to move to Ft. Lauderdale are shockingly still in effect. She was even accepted into a culinary school. Which one? Who knows, but Plus 4 because at least it required some degree of effort on her part.
She takes her parents out to dinner for her dad's birthday and unveils the present every father craves - she booked a family counseling session!! Crickets. Minus 7.
Farrah says the idea of being without Sophia is "hard on me." Ya think? Plus 5.
It's also "good that I spend more time on myself, because I need that." Don't we all. You can't use that as an excuse to shirk responsibility, though. Minus 6.
