The Punkin Chunkin 2016 TV Special airing on Discovery Channel and The Science Channel was cancelled following a serious accident this year. News stories about the accident and that the airing was canceled are easy to locate via a quick search online. Reality Blurred is one such site. USA Today is another.

Statement from The Science Channel appearing the Reality Blurred article:

"In light of the unfortunate incident at the Punkin Chunkin event on Nov. 6, Science Channel will not air Punkin Chunkin as originally planned. We are sending our hopes and prayers for a full recovery to the injured woman, her family and loved ones.”

The Discovery Channel's TV schedule page simply won't display for me but it's clearly absent from the Science Channel's TV listings.
