True Life is MTV's award-winning series that covers diverse topics that are important to our audience, ranging from pop culture trends to breaking news issues. True Life crews are able to blend into the background to capture life unscripted and untouched. This enables us to tell stories from the voices and points-of-view of our characters putting the series in a unique position of reflecting the state of youth culture at any given moment. And, since the series premiere in 1998, MTV's audience has kept wanting more constantly tuning in, making True Life the most popular documentary series in our channel's history. "Legit documentary-style programs about real-life families such as MTV's "True Life" will get you right back in front of the old TV where you belong," says Linda Stasi of the New York Post.
