Mo Gilligan's That's My Jam axed after just one series
Mo Gilligan's 'That's My Jam' has been scrapped by the BBC after just one series.
The 'Masked Singer' panellist's game show based on the segment from Jimmy Fallon's music-themed segment on his US show 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' won't be returning to screens.
A BBC spokesperson confirmed to The Sun: "Sometimes difficult decisions have to be made, so while there will not be another series of That’s My Jam, we would like to extend our thanks to Mo Gilligan and the teams at Universal International Studios’ label Monkey and Universal Television Alternative Studio for bringing the series to audiences in the UK.”
It comes after Mo, 35, confirmed Channel 4's 'The Lateish Show' has been canned after four seasons.
The presenter is also not returning as host of the BRIT Awards next year.
The funnyman took over from Jack Whitehall and presided over the annual ceremony in 2022 and 2023, but recently confirmed he won't be taking the reins again in 2024 because the event clashes with his US comedy tour.
He wrote in a statement shared to Instagram: "I've had the most incredible time working on The Brits but unfortunately as I'll be in the US for my first World Tour next spring, I'm sorry to say that I'll be stepping down from hosting duties for 2024 and handing over the baton.
"It's been phenomenal to work on this iconic event.
"I've loved getting to know all the remarkable people who run The Brit Trust and the outstanding Brit School.
"The tireless work you do to improve lives through the power of music and the creative arts is sensational and I promise to supporting whenever I can."
The 35-year-old star had also shared a tweet from 2011 in which he said: "In 2013 I need to host the #MOBO's or #TheBritAwards *Fingers Crossed*.(sic)"
And Mo thanked broadcasters ITV for making his dream come true.
He added in his statement: "Thank you to ITV for making a young man's dream come true and to all the brilliant performers, guests, production team and most importantly, the viewers at home for all your amazing support.
"It's been an honour. See you on Tour!"
Mo insists he has plenty of work for 2024.
He told fans online: “Next year is a busy one for me."
