G4TV Changes Mind, Will Air Ryan Dunn's Proving Ground Episodes

It turns out that Jackass star Ryan Dunn will be sharing a little more love with his fans after all, as G4TV has done away with its decision to pull all remaining Proving Ground episodes. The series had only just begun to air on G4TV prior to Dunn's passing, but was yanked before the second of nine scheduled episodes could air.

A special episode of Attack of the Show is now scheduled to kick off on July 19th, and will feature Dunn's closest friends and colleagues. Immediately after the special Attack of the Show episode wraps up Proving Ground will experience its revival, beginning with the second episode in the line-up.

"Ryan was an incredible talent who will be missed tremendously by his many fans, including G4 viewers," President Neal Tiles said.

"It was important to all of us at G4 to find a way to celebrate his life and pay tribute to him. With the support of Ryan's family, we've decided to air the remaining episodes of 'G4's Proving Ground' and give his fans the opportunity to continue watching this series that he was so passionate about."
