After 9 seasons on the air, “Shahs of Sunset” has taken the ax… but all may not be lost for some cast members who can still have some sort of future with the network.
Production sources tell TMZ that Bravo simply ran its course after it first aired in March 2012… and a decision was made to end it.
There is some promising news amid the cancellation, however…our sources say some OG’s Shah – Reza FarhanAnd the Mercedes “MJ” Javed And the Golnesa “GG” Gharachedaghi All are in early talks for possible future projects with the network.

If you didn’t know… “Shahs of Sunset” follows a group of Persian Americans as they navigate their social lives and jobs in Los Angeles – all while trying to meet the demands of their families and the traditions of their Shah.
The series premiered with controversy… Concern grew within the Iranian-American community that the show would promote a very stereotypical message to the world.
Cast members have said that the series portrays a more “American” version of the Persians, comparing their similarities to the “brutal” portrayal in modern films such as 2012’s “Argo.”
We have reached out to the Bravo rep…so far, no word has been received.
“Typical beer trailblazer. Hipster-friendly web buff. Certified alcohol fanatic. Internetaholic. Infuriatingly humble zombie lover.”
