City of Shreveport and Mayor Perkins to be featured on Undercover Boss Show
The long-anticipated episode of Undercover Boss featuring the City of Shreveport and Mayor Adrian Perkins will air at 8 p.m. Central Standard Time Friday, November 13, 2020, on CBS. Mayor Adrian Perkins will go undercover within the fire and police departments, the park maintenance team, and at a youth recreation center to help improve these departments and bring forth a brighter future for Shreveport.
"I'm excited for the world to see the amazing, but often unnoticed, work City of Shreveport employees do every day," said Mayor Adrian Perkins. "The folks at our police and fire departments, parks maintenance, and SPAR's recreational facilities are dedicated public servants who make Shreveport proud. I also want to thank the generous businesses and organizations that provided the participants’ rewards: Ivan Smith, the LSUS Foundation, Rhino Coffee, Clean Harbors, and the Dicks Sporting Goods Foundation. I can't wait to share this fun and rewarding experience with my fellow Shreveport citizens."
Undercover Boss is a two-time Emmy Award-winning reality series that follows high-level executives as they slip anonymously into their organizations' rankand-file. This year marks the show's 10th anniversary season. While Shreveport's episode is airing in November of 2020, the episode was filmed in October of 2019 before the coronavirus pandemic, which is why participants are not wearing masks or practicing social distancing.
