MTV’s Popular MADE Show Coming to Dearborn
MTV’s popular MADE cable TV show is coming to Dearborn to begin taping an upcoming segment at the city’s ice arena.
If you aren’t sure what MADE is all about, you can click HERE for a look at some earlier episodes. In a nutshell, MADE says it is all about proving that with hard work, dedication and some help from MTV, “kids just like you can accomplish anything they set their minds to.”
MADE producers aren’t yet telling city officials what the segment will be about but the fact the show is asking for permission to tape at the Dearborn Ice Skating Center (the Adray Ice Arena to us longtime Dearbornites), our guess is that it will either be about someone wanting to be a figure skater or a hockey player.
Dearborn Mayor John B. O’Reilly, Jr., says the show is expected to begin taping in the next few weeks. While it isn’t clear if the person starring in the segment is from Dearborn, the program’s site selection suggests that it will at least be a person from metro Detroit.
Either way, it should result in some positive coverage about Dearborn.

The MTV I remember showed music videos. Sigh.

This is great! The DISC is the best facility in Michigan for a reason and a little publicity from MTV will be great advertisement for the Dearborn Hockey Association and the Dearbron Figure Skating Club.

I expect to see Donna Hay out there with her ice skates and Olympic dress doing all sorts of Olympic skating tricks.

Michael – don’t know what happened to my figure skates that I had for years and as for my olympic dress – guess I outgrew that. As for who the star will be – stay tuned your in for a surprise.
