Our America with Lisa Ling

This Is Life with Lisa Ling is a CNN original documentary television series produced by Brooklyn-based production company Part2 Pictures and American journalist Lisa Ling, who is also the show's host. The program's first season premiered on September 28, 2014, and its last season was in 2022.[1]

Summary

In the investigative docuseries, host Lisa Ling journeys to the far corners of America.[2] The premiere episode features Ling investigating the world of "sugaring" and opening up about her relationship experience being a self-proclaimed sugar baby.[3] Later in the first season, Ling delved into topics such as drug abuse in Utah's Mormon community, and the gay rodeo scene. The music for the first season was composed by Mike Shinoda of the band Linkin Park.[4]

The series is a continuation of Ling's prior documentary series, Our America with Lisa Ling, which ran for five seasons until 2014 on OWN.

Background

This Is Life was one of 12 anticipated nonfiction series to air on CNN, amid its typical daily newscasts, in 2015.[5] The influx of these original primetime shows was part of a new initiative to "help CNN reduce its dependence on the network’s traditional format," according to a Variety article. Other nonfiction series that occupied primetime slots on CNN when her show debuted included Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown and a series featuring the Discovery Channel's Mike Rowe.[6]

Celebrity writer Greg Gilman speculated that This is Life would be similar in concept to Lisa Ling's previous show, Our America.[2] However, Ling told the Huffington Post that This is Life would be "edgier" and "much more in your face" than the last series, which aired on OWN.[7]
