MTV is the #1 24-hour ad-supported cable network among 12-34 year olds, 18-24 year olds and 12-24 year olds, fueled in part by such hits as Laguna Beach, Real World, Making the Band 3, Run’s House and others. MTV’s success extends well beyond the TV screen as MTV’s online, broadband and multiplatform initiatives connect with larger audiences than ever before.

   MTV also is one of the largest networks on the planet, reaching more than 480 million households in 179 countries and 22 languages via 50 locally programmed and operated TV channels distributed in Asia, Australia, Europe, Latin America, Russia, Africa and the United States.
