DESCRIPTION: (from MTV's press release, September 2020) MTV announced today that it is bringing back the iconic series 16 and Pregnant, which launched over a decade ago and helped to reduce teen pregnancy to record lows (National Bureau of Economic Research), as a newly reimagined docu-series. The six-episode season premieres on Tuesday, October 6 at 9PM ET/PT on MTV. The new iteration - part of MTV's 16 and franchise - will follow the unexpected pregnancy journey from multiple perspectives, not just from the young mother. Intimate video confessionals from members of each family will allow the series to more substantively explore the lives of those impacted by the experience, with honesty and empathy. |
