GUESS WHO'S COMING OVER MEDIA ALERT
(Los Angeles, CA) TLC explores the sensitive topic of racism in modern America through
a social experiment that brings two lives with different experiences together under one
roof. In the one-hour special GUESS WHO'S COMING OVER � premiering Sunday May
3 at 10 PM ET/PT � viewers travel along with Chuck, an African American from New
York City, as he moves in with the white family of David Turner, a self-described
"redneck," in Dawsonville, GA (population: less than 700). Chuck has been invited by
David's daughter, Michell, in an attempt to eradicate David's preconceived notions about
people of African-American descent. After a few days, the tables are turned, and David
goes to New York to see Chuck's hometown and meet Chuck's family.
Will the experiment help David overcome his prejudice? What will Chuck take away from
the experience? What will be the lasting results of this emotional and intellectual
journey? Tune in May 3 as TLC asks GUESS WHO'S COMING OVER.
GUESS WHO'S COMING OVER is produced by Endemol USA.
