Ink Master season 14 is happening on Paramount Network, but viewers may need to wait for a while. Due to the current global health crisis, some things may still change. In fact, the previous installment suddenly ended, wrapping up season 13 with no winner.
Paramount renewed Ink Master season 14 the same time it renewed season 13. There are still no other details about the next installment, but CarterMatt suggests it will still happen. Yet, there could be changes, particularly the release date schedule, because of the COVID-19 outbreak.
Filming for Ink Master season 14 may not happen anytime soon, considering the situation of the world at the moment. And since there is a potential delay, some speculated that the latest installment may be arriving earlier in 2021.
The official theme or Ink Master season 14 is yet to be revealed, as well. Viewers may also see some notable changes once the new season arrives. For instance, Oliver Peck will not be appearing in the upcoming installment. His departure was announced before the start of season 13.
Hence, a new judge may arrive entering Ink Master season 14. Perhaps, the new panelist will be one of the notable former contestants in the previous seasons. It only makes sense the competition will add someone familiar to the process to help the new contestants with what they're going through on a regular basis.
Meanwhile, as mentioned, the show came to a shocking season 13 ending on Tuesday night, Apr. 14. It was revealed that there'll be no live finale and the finalists will all receive a cash prize -- but with no title. Thus, there is no official Ink Master this time around.
Paramount Network ended the competition amid the current health crisis, as the show wouldn't be able to hold a finale in front of a live audience. The situation won't also allow the finalists to present their final tattoos to the judges.
There is no official champion between the final three: Jimmy, Angel, and Bob. But despite the lack of a winner, all of them still received a cash prize for their efforts. This move is understandable since there's no way for artists to present their works to the live audience, as well as judges.
While it's sad there is no official winner this season, safety always comes first. What viewers need to do now is to wait for the arrival of Ink Master season 14. It's interesting to see what would be the theme here, and it's also exciting to see who will be the new contestants.
