City Teen is a fresh, lively, informative, one-hour daily program especially for and about “super teens” and praiseworthy preteens. Dealing with real teen issues, City Teen will have a studio home base (Southern California) with in-the-field, on-location segments covering what’s happening with teens in the city, across the country, and around the world.
City Teen will feature teens and preteens who make a difference in the world. Kids in your neighborhood may be featured. So many young people are well aware of the problems in the world and find ways to help those who are less fortunate. And some of these kids are considered “at risk” themselves. We will conduct interviews with these outstanding kids and their mentors.
Southern California is the perfect backdrop to tape full episodes of this compelling program: the Lakers’ or local basketball court, the neighborhood bike shop, a family’s living room or porch, the beach, Disneyland, the Angels’ and Dodgers’ ballparks, hospitals, animal rescue groups’ meetings, fairs and musical venues, and on-site coverage of a program in East L.A. that rescues victimized kids from the streets and rehabilitates former gang members.
Super teens are found everywhere! They should be recognized, and that is our commitment. We will also be asking for your help in recommending worthy teens you know. Instead of kids getting a “bad rap” in general, we want to show the positive side of the teen world, the super teen.
One of the shows in the works features young bicycle racers from impoverished neighborhoods who have the opportunity to succeed in this grueling sport because of their individual courage and desire to succeed, and the selfless mentoring of caring adults.
Another program will highlight a young prize-winning artist/student (who also works part-time) for his steadfastness and loyalty to his mother when others close to her ignored her physical and emotional needs. During those tragic times, this “super teen” put his own interests on hold and threw all his support behind his Mom.
With surprise guests stopping by at any time, the program will also review new/upcoming movies and TV shows, video games, and what’s hot (and not!) in the entertainment and fashion worlds.
