Court filing reveals Rehab reality TV show has been canceled

The truTV reality show “Rehab: Party at the Hard Rock Hotel” won’t be returning for a fourth season, attorneys have disclosed.

The disclosure was made last week in court papers by attorneys for the Las Vegas Hard Rock hotel-casino, which hosts Rehab day parties during the summer and was hit with a trademark lawsuit over the TV show in September by the owner of the international Hard Rock brand.

Hard Rock Cafe International charged in the September lawsuit that the TV show about the Las Vegas parties was tarnishing the Hard Rock brand by portraying “drunken debauchery, acts of vandalism, sexual harassment, violence and criminality.”

The Las Vegas hotel-casino, controlled by Swiss financial giant Credit Suisse Group AG and minority investor Morgans Hotel Group of New York, initially responded to the lawsuit by filing a counterclaim saying the lawsuit was motivated by an underlying business dispute with Hard Rock International.
