Operation Repo is an American television program that depicts the world of car repossession with a team of professionals who portray repossessions from California's San Fernando Valley. Similar to another truTV show, Southern Fried Stings, the series is filmed in a cinema verité style but consists of scripted and dramatized reenactments performed by actors. The show is filmed by recreating scenes which show the cast conducting repossession of automobiles for finance companies. In the show they also perform repossession of other exotic and strange items such as luxury boats, planes, limousines, ATVs, Zambonis, tow trucks, expensive bicycles, hot air balloons and tanning beds.
Operation Repo consists of actual stories from repossession incidents; however, the show depicts scripted and dramatized re-enactments in which the cast recreates incidents using actors and staged action footage. There is a disclaimer at the beginning of the show which says: "The stories that are portrayed in this program are based on real events. The names of the characters were changed in order to protect their identities . . . and some honor." This has prompted many people to question the show's authenticity, because it is portrayed as being reality television.
Operation Repo was first produced in an English-language version in 2008. The show is based on a Spanish-language program of essentially the same name, Operación Repo, shown on Telemundo, which launched in October 2006. Operación Repo has been the number-one rated show on Telemundo.
The eighth U.S. season premiered on January 27, 2011. Operation Repo also airs on OLN in Canada.
