Operation Repo (formerly known as Operación Repo) is an American reality television series that depicts the world of car repossession with a team that portrays repossessions from California's San Fernando Valley.[2]

Re-enactment and authenticity

Operation Repo consists of what are purported to be actual stories of repossession incidents; however, the show depicts scripted and dramatized re-enactments in which the cast "recreates" incidents using actors and staged action footage.[3][4]

Broadcast history

Operation Repo was first produced in a Spanish-language version, Operación Repo on Telemundo in October , becoming the number-one rated show on the network.[5] The show later crossed over to English-language and moved to truTV, where it started airing on March 31,

Operation Repo also airs on OLN in Canada and RTL7 in the Netherlands and on One In Australia. In Spain it airs on Energy, in Norway on Viasat 4, in Italy on Italia 2 and in the United Kingdom it airs on DMAX.

The eleventh season resumed on December 18, and concluded, along with the series, on February 5, [6]
