ABOUT THE SHOW
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.
