After scoring MTV's highest ratings ever for a series premiere, WORLD OF JENKS is back.
This season, MTV is doubling
the length of each episode from 30 minutes to a full hour. But instead of focusing on one subject per episode, the program
will follow three subjects over the course of the entire season.
WORLD OF JENKS showcases the lives of inspirational
young people who face difficult odds but strive to overcome them. It's shot from the POV of Andrew Jenks, a 25-year old filmmaker
who embeds himself in the life of each individual with cameras rolling the entire time.
It was recently named Best
Documentary-Style Reality Program at the Banff World Media Festival, the world's premiere festival for television and digital
media.
WORLD OF JENKS: Season 2 is scheduled to premiere in early 2012. Enlightening and uplifting, heartbreaking
and hilarious, it promises to set a new standard for gripping documentary programming on MTV.
