Two A Days

MTV has teenagers figured out, man.

They've got a new show documentary/reality kind of show in which they've taken a high school and grabbed a segment of the high school to base the normal day-in, day-out storylines of a high school community. Coincidentally, they went to my former high school in Hoover, Alabama. Now, the size of the high school has doubled and they've added another high school to the city and they're WAY more successful in football than we were (two state championships in the first 20 years, now they've won 5 state championships in 6 years...and their only loss was in the state finals).

But think about all the made-for-TV storylines that took place in your high school.

Now add some of the best professional editing and marketers to teens available.

Oh my gosh.

While this one is running on MTV, apparently they're picking the next school for the next version of the show...apparently it's going to be called Band Geeks. Coincidentally, they're going to go to the high school my daughter currently attends here in Flower Mound. They have a national championship drum line and a pretty darn good high school band. I know lots of teenagers in that band and I think I could make a televeision show out of their lives...I wouldn't need professional editors and marketers.

Maybe they should make one called "Youth Group."
