Rob & Big was an American reality television series that followed the lives of professional skateboarder, Rob Dyrdek, and his best friend and body guard, Christopher "Big Black" Boykin. The show premiered on November 2, 2006 and ended on April 15, 2008. The series was produced by Ruben Fleischer and directed by Mark Jacobs.
The show helped MTV2 achieve its highest rated day in channel history on January 15, 2007. The first full season reached over 70 million total viewers, and was ranked #1 in its time period.[1]
Season 3 premiered on January 8, 2008. On April 15, 2008 the one hour season finale aired in which Big Black has a child and subsequently moves out of Rob's home.
There has been no announcement of the show continuing for a 4th season. According to an interview with Big Black, Rob is pretty much "burnt out" with reality television and will go back to devoting his time to skateboarding. However, Big will be returning to reality TV-land in November with a show featuring him and his friends.[2]
