The Buried Life

The Buried Life is a show on MTV about four friends working on their list of 100 things to do before they die. Pals Duncan, Ben, Jonnie, and Dave have a list of goals that they want to accomplish in their lives. For every goal they complete, they help a stranger complete something on their list. They travel across the United States together on a transit bus as cameras follow their quest. As they do things like make a toast at a stranger’s wedding, try to score a date with Megan Fox, and sneak into a party at the Playboy Mansion, they also help people of all ages from all across the country achieve their dreams. Their epic journey is an insight into making anything possible and the importance of helping others. Even if not everything on their list gets completed, they demonstrate that assisting other people is just as important, if not more so. The show is part of MTV’s movement to create more conscious programming, and provokes viewers to ask themselves the question ‘What do you want to do before you die? MORE
