From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia MTV Cribs MTV Cribs format, title sequences, and on-screen graphics. The show is also no longer voiced by SuChin Pak. A ’Priciest Pads’ special was created to kick off the new season, hosted by Kimora Lee Simmons. The show was put into syndication in September 2008, to be offered by local television stations on a weekday basis in the United States by Litton Entertainment. However, the Litton versions of the program have been severely edited and changed. Any references to MTV have been scrubbed out, and the program has received a new logo referring to it as just Cribs, while all music that was played in the original episodes has been replaced by production music to avoid royalty fees. Although Lewis and Pak are still listed in the episode credits as narrators, all narration has also been stripped in the re-edited episodes, and ’coming up’ segments are either silent or voiced by an uncredited announcer. A re-edited version of the program with archived Cribs segments featuring only celebrities in the country music field and those in Southern culture airs on MTV sister network CMT. The old MTV Cribs logo MTV Cribs is a reality television program on MTV that features tours of the houses and mansions of celebrities. The first show aired September 2000. As of April 26, 2005, Cribs has featured tours of the homes of over 185 celebrities, musicians, actors, and athletes over the course of 13 seasons. The show was originally narrated by Ananda Lewis and is now narrated by SuChin Pak of MTV News. It was developed by Nina L. Díaz, who has gone on to develop My Super Sweet 16, also for MTV. The most watched and replayed episode of Cribs was a special one-hour edition touring Mariah Carey’s New York penthouse. In 2005/2006, MTV Canada produced a series of Canadian-made Cribs episodes.
