4…but it was canceled after six episodes
In an interview with The New York Times, EJ shed light on what went wrong with EJNYC, which only lasted just six episodes. He was unhappy with how the show “portrayed him,” saying, “I don’t even recognize that person. It was sad. It was, like, this is supposed to be my show and my moment, and it wasn’t what I wanted at all. I mean, I looked good, but that was just me doing me.” EJ singled out the show’s producers. “Everyone was just worried about me being ‘relatable,’ and even that word made me want to gag.”
Rich Kids of Beverly Hills was simultaneously canceled. Though an insider told Entertainment Tonight, “The cast was upset because they wanted at least one more season to give closure to their storylines,” it sounds like EJ was certainly ready to be done with all things E! at that point.
