Background

edit

Video on Trial features music videos being humorously critiqued in a manner akin to a courtroom trial. The show's tongue-in-cheek manifesto, as announced in its original opening sequence, is seeing to it that "all music videos are brought to justice".[1] A typical half-hour episode features five music videos being "tried" by a panel of five personalities acting as jurors.

The sixth season of Video on Trial retains the abridged episode format introduced midway through the fifth season.
