The fifth season, which premiered on January 3, 2019, took place in Florence, Arizona at the Pinal County Jail. On November 19, 2019, the show was renewed for a sixth season which takes place in the Etowah County Detention Center in Gadsden, Alabama and premiered on January 2, 2020. On July 1, 2022, the show was announced to return for a seventh season, taking place at the Henry County Sheriff's Office in McDonough, Georgia; premiering on August 18, 2022, it was the first season to have a cast composed entirely of former inmates.

A spinoff titled 60 Days In: Narcoland began airing on July 30, 2019.

Premise

The television series follows seven individuals as they volunteer to go undercover, spending 60 days as prison inmates. Their goal is to obtain evidence of questionable or illegal activities within the jail that might be missed by the correctional officers and surveillance systems. The existence of the undercover program is kept secret from the inmates, the guards, and most of the jail officials. Prior to entering the jail, the volunteers receive instruction on how to act around other inmates, and they are each given a pseudonym and a cover story, including details of the (fake) criminal charges on which they were arrested.

The first two seasons occurred in the Clark County Jail (also known as the Michael L. Becher Adult Correctional Complex), in Jeffersonville, Indiana. Although it was repeatedly mentioned that Maryum Ali was given an alias to use because of her famous father (boxer Muhammad Ali), it was later revealed that volunteer Robert was also using an alias while imprisoned, and that he would blow his cover if he visited an emergency room and gave his real name.

Because producers realized that it would be difficult for volunteers to remain undercover after the first season aired, a second season was produced before the series premiered. Representatives from A&E told Business Insider that multiple corrections officers were fired due to the program. According to the producers, valid legal releases to appear on television were obtained from inmates, but they were not told the actual reason that the releases were needed.

The series revealed the importance of tater tots. The meal trays frequently served tater tots to the inmates. On the show, two real inmates allegedly fought over the potato-based food, which they occasionally used as currency. The Clark County Sheriff's Office held a community fundraiser where they sold T-shirts and tater tots based on the show.

Season 2 began airing on Thursday August 18, 2016, with 60 Days In: Meet the Participants premiering on August 11. Season 2 episodes began airing on Wednesday, September 28, 2016, on Foxtel's crime + investigation network in Australia.

Notable incidents

During season 4, women's pod participant Angele Cooper started a relationship with another inmate. Cooper later revealed her participation in the show to the inmate, causing her to be pulled from the pod. Colonel Mark Adger made the decision to end the program early due to Cooper's actions.

Reception

Amy Amatangelo of The Hollywood Reporter gave the first season of the show a positive review, calling it "fascinating and frightening" and "eye-opening." Brian Lowry of Variety gave a mixed review, criticizing Sheriff Jamey Noel and the participants but praising the show "creating tension in conjuring the threat of violence." Andy Dehnart of Reality Blurred gave the first season an extremely negative review, calling the show's premise "flimsy" and "ludicrous," and criticizing the show's characterization of men's pod participant Robert.

Controversy

60 Days In has garnered controversy over its alleged fabrication of events portrayed in the show. In 2021, Season 1 participant Robert Holcomb accused the show of heavily editing content for the show, stating, "The show made inmates look like animals; in reality they were kind human beings suffering from drug problems." DiAundré Newby, a Clark County Jail inmate featured in season 1, accused the show of editing an altercation between him and another inmate to fit a narrative surrounding Robert.

Alan, a Season 4 participant, quit his job as a police officer in Texas after appearing on the show, stating, "I couldn't go to bed at night knowing that if I stopped somebody with a little dime bag of weed, I were to arrest them and put them in a place like that — I wouldn't be able to live with myself."

On October 31, 2020, Nate Burrell, a Season 3 and 4 participant, committed suicide in Allegan, Michigan.
