The world of auto repossession is brought to life on the American television show Operation Repo, which features a cast that acts out dramatized accounts of repossessed vehicles that take place in the San Fernando Valley in the state of California. The series is filmed in a cinema verité style, although it has scripted and dramatized performances by actors. The format of the show is comparable to that of another show on truTV called Southern Fried Stings. Scenes from the show are re-created in the studio with the players acting out their roles as auto repossession agents for various financial institutions. The show also features the repossession of a variety of other unusual and outlandish items, including high-end boats, planes, limousines, motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), Zambonis, ice cream trucks, tow trucks, buses, trucks, expensive bicycles, hot air balloons, wood chippers, forklifts, and tanning beds.
