EW.com reports that MTV will not greenlight a second season of its single camera scripted comedy ZACH STONE IS GONNA BE FAMOUS. The series premiered on May 2nd.

Bo Burnham, who starred as Zach Stone, a fresh- out-of-high school teenager who opts to pursue a life of fame and stardom instead of attending college, showed his sense of humor upon hearing the new by tweeting: @CarlsJr are you hiring?

The series followed Zach, who hires a camera crew to film him throughout his daily life as a part of his quest to become an over-night celebrity - even though he possesses no real talent. From his attempts to become a celebrity chef or a ring-tone recording artist to purposefully going missing, Zach will try any avenue to get noticed and stop at nothing until he reaches fame.

Chaos, awkwardness and embarrassment ensue in this clever and timely series that serves as a comedic send-up of today's current culture of instant celebrity.
