Fans of The Hard Times of Rj Berger are understandably upset by the cancellation of the MTV series after two seasons on the air. The final episode left some shockers that apparently won't be resolved, like jock bully Max kissing a guy in the locker room shower and Lily discovering that she's carrying Rj's baby.
The viewers aren't the only ones who will miss the TV series though. The cast took to Twitter to express their sadness over the news.
Paul Iacono (Rj Berger): "Rip Rj Berger. You were a great guy in more ways than one. On to bigger and better..."
Amber Lancaster (Jenny Swanson): It’s sad but true #RJBerger got cancelled after 2 amazing seasons. Thank you to all the fans who loved and supported us. xo #RIPjennyswanson.”

There's no word on whether or not The Hard Times of Rj Berger will be back for a third season yet but actress Kara Taitz, who plays Lily on the MTV series is hopeful. She recently told Zap2It that the season two finale will have a cliffhanger that will leave the audience wanting more.
She said, "I know that last season we didn't hear 'til around now, or a little bit after. So I don't know what it means or doesn't mean that we haven't heard yet... but I think we need a third season. I think the story, as you see it go into that cliffhanger mode, needs to continue to be told. Hopefully MTV agrees."
She teases that the cliffhanger will affect everyone, saying, "There's a few things that happen that are gonna be really fun and we're really gonna want...

Heading into next week's installment of "The Hard Times of Rj Berger," we knew it was going to be a big episode.
Rj (Paul Iacono) is tormented relentlessly by bully Max Owens (Jayson Blair), especially when it comes to his birthday. This year, true to form, Max doesn't miss an opportunity to torture poor Rj -- See the clip below.
Only this time around, Blair tells us that Rj decides to flip the script.
"Rj finally stands up to me because I punish him every year on his birthday," he says. "[Rj] decides to have a birthday party in [Max's] honor and call it a 'Max Bash,' so I go covert ops and I thrash his party, and it's a really powerful moment for his character and mine."
Kara Taitz, who plays Lily, tells us that the "Max Bash" was a blast to film, and that the cast really "Learned a...

What happens when a beautiful brunette tutor comes strutting into Rj Berger's (Paul Iacono) life? A love square, that's what.
MTV's original series "The Hard Times of Rj Berger" is about to introduce a new player into its already established love triangle between Rj, Lily (Kara Taitz) and Jenny (Amber Lancaster). When Rj's grades begin to slip, he's forced to seek help from a tutor. Little does he know what's coming his way.
We have an exclusive sneak peek at the very first scene featuring singer/actress Caitlin Crosby as Amy, the geek-chic tutor. In the clip, we see Rj fantasize about her half naked in a school girl outfit (which totally reminds us of fellow MTV star Jenni "J-Woww" Farley). Watch as Amy calls Rj out and tells him, "Girls can tell when you're doing that."
Zap2it spoke with Crosby about her character on the show, whom she describes as the "Anti-Popular-People-Person.

The Hard Times of Rj Berger kicked off season two with a bang, and we sat down with Max Owens, aka Jayson Blair, to see what was going on as we discussed the show's awesome guest stars, the problem with playing bullies, and the future of the season.
__________
Ugo: What drew you to the show?
Jayson Blair: I really liked how edgy and ambitious the material was. I wanted to give it a try and have some fun, because the show is, essentially, a whole lot of fun to watch and to be a part of.
Ugo: So what’s it like playing the bully on the show?
Jayson Blair: It’s a lot of fun because we’re kind of like a family on set. So, when I mess with people, I’m messing with my friends. I get a free pass, because I’m being my character.

"The Hard Times of Rj Berger," a new show about a well-endowed young man trying to navigate high school life, is set to make its big debut this Sunday after the MTV Movie Awards. And guess what? The whole school knows Rj's big secret.
Considering the show is all about hooking up and throwing down, the "Berger" stars seemed like the right group to weigh in on two categories at the show: Best Kiss and Best Fight.
First up, the cast debated the Best Kiss contenders, who include Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning ("The Runaways"), Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson ("New Moon), Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift ("Valentine's Day"), Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock ("The Proposal") and Zoe Saldana...
