Think of it as the bucket list for the MTV generation. Beginning in December 2009, MTV will bring viewers along for quite an interesting ride with the new series, “The Buried Life.” This real-life adventure documents the epic journey of four young men, Duncan, Ben, Jonnie and Dave, as they travel the continent in their purple bus, Penelope, to pursue their wildest dreams, learning from their successes and struggles along the way.
The group of four explores life with a list of 100 things they’d like to do before they die. This list includes such random things as: -Take a stranger out for dinner -Get a date with Megan Fox -Send a message in a bottle -Help a woman give birth to a baby -Tell a judge “You want the truth? You can’t handle the truth!” -Sleep in a haunted house Throughout the course of the season, viewers will ride along with the gang of four as they try to pull off unbelievable stunts and realize their dreams.
The four friends are: Duncan, the oldest of the group at age 26, who is a bit of a wild card with a heart of gold; Ben, the 25 year-old ringleader who will do whatever it takes to get things done; Jonnie, Duncan’s 22 year-old younger brother, who is a blogger and philosopher; and Dave, the 23 year-old break-dancer and “one-man party” who is up for anything. As they whittle down their list, the four gentlemen also make a promise that for each item they cross off their list, they’ll help a perfect stranger accomplish one of their dreams.
“These guys are on a mission to change lives, spread hope and make dreams come true, while also having the time of their lives and fulfilling their own dreams,” said Tony DisSanto, President of Programming for MTV. “It is an amazing journey, and we are proud to be a partner in this inspirational and uniquely entertaining series. It’s more than just a show it’s a movement.” “The Buried Life” actually began three years ago as Duncan, Ben, Dave and Jonnie, decided to make a list of everything they wanted most in life. The title of their journey was actually inspired by a poem written by Matthew Arnold in 1852 that explored the idea that the monotony of everyday life can sometimes bury people and make them forget what they’re passionate about. #53 on the boys’ list was successful thanks to MTV – it was to start a television show. MTV can be found on channel 160 on DISH.
