PUBLISHED AUG 8, 2018

Max Joseph is leaving the MTV reality show, 'Catfish', with his final episode set to air on Wednesday, August 22 at 9 pm. Joseph said in a statement, "Hey guys, the time has come, sadly, for me to move on from 'Catfish'. Working on this show for the last seven years has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. I've learned a lot about myself, my country and human nature in general. Nev and I have become brothers and our bromance has blossomed before your eyes." 

Explaining the reason for his departure, Joseph said he was stuck between two careers as a Tv host and a filmmaker and it was high time he had one choice. He said, "For a while now I have been straddling two careers as a TV host and filmmaker and, while this level of busy-ness is a dream come true, my life can no longer sustain it. With Ma still going strong after 7 seasons, 115 episodes, 31 specials and showing no sign of slowing down, I feel it is finally the time for me to make my exit."
