Behind the Screen: Made in Kentucky - MTV

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

What the **** is this. MTV just throws anything together...

Made in Kentucky - MTV

PinkRose ·

“Made in Kentucky” is a new docuseries that follows a rowdy group of friends in gorgeous Pike County, Kentucky, deep in Appalachian Coal Country. This diverse gang bucks all convention and makes their own fun through country shenanigans and wild behavior: from Hillbilly Jet Skiing and “Rock Bouncing” to River-Slides, Lawnmower Jousting, and making “Hot Tub Pickups” out of their trucks, there’s never a dull moment when these friends come together. In a group this tight, lives intertwine – so there’s no lack of dramatic love stories and complicated love triangles, but friendship always comes first. And while the recent national focus on Coal has revived hope in this once-thriving Coal Town, the group still questions what comes next: stay in the picturesque home they’ve loved forever…or chase opportunities outside of Coal Country?

Floribama shore season 1 says hi lol

Tbh- For some reason I see this doing okay like that show. But this is pointless when they have the other one filming another season.

Elkhorn city, 99% white. Great diverse choice MTV lol. Maybe they will surprise me and address this since there's a black girl on the cast, but I don't see that happening

According to this, they won't show any fights on the show. Lame

Chicken_breast#15

Which one is Jake? Black shirt or Red shirt?

HonestTea101#16

They probably could have made a real world season with the Winter Break and this show's money. I think it's pretty much dead in MTV's eyes

Sounds like it

Especially with floribama shore, why do we need this many hillbilly shows? They can go ahead and stick britni in this one so she falls off the planet when this show gets cancelled 5 minutes into the first episode.

Daddy DAF#21

they seem to really be into filming inbreds getting drunk. all started with that west virginia show

TwoStrikes#22

This show was a choice

timster3#23

Laughed out loud at the token black chick. There's no point black folks ain't watching this mess. This is a hard no for me.

KlounV3#24

Yea issa no

MalikOnFleek#29

Y'all really let lurker on a show

Back2TheTrap#30

Damicka & Hannah>>>>>, but hard pass for this show. Like someone said, Made in Zone 6, or Made in Chiraq would've been a better option. Hell even Made in Compton would've been something interesting to watch. 

LucciVee#31

Now they just throwing shit in the air and hoping it stick. & I love how they conveniently throw black men and women into these hillbilly *** shows thinking they're diverse when they know black folks aint about to watch this mess.
