106 & Park is an American music video show, set up in a countdown format, that airs weekdays 6 p.m. on BET and weekdays 7 p.m. on BET UK. Since its inception, it has been the network's number one rated show.
Location
The show was originally produced in Harlem, New York, and the title is derived from the original studio location at East 106th Street and Park Avenue. Viacom's acquisition of BET prompted a change in venue to the CBS Broadcast Center at 524 West 57th Street, in the Hell's Kitchen section of Manhattan.[1]
TERRENCE AND ROCSI FIRST DAY WAS JULY 10 2006 IT IS UNKNOWN THEY WILL LEAVE IN 2011.
Hosts
Originally when the show debuted in 2000, its hosts included, A.J. Calloway and Free until the summer of 2005, when a tearjerking A.J. announced that it would be his last show, as the same for Free (via cell phone), the show was then presented by Julissa Bermudez and Big Tigger (of Rap City) broadcasted the show until the end of the 2005–2006 season, which Rocsi and Terrence became hosts, since the summer of 2006, after winning the "BET New Faces" contest. It is unknown whether they will be leaving the show in 2011.
Broadcasting history
Upon its premiere, the series ran for one hour (including commercials). In 2001, it was extended to 90 minutes. Starting in 2008, most episodes became two hours long, but still somewhat frequently reverts to 90 minutes depending on BET's scheduling for the day, particularly if a long movie is airing.
The show celebrated its 2,000th episode on Wednesday, August 20, 2008. The show's 10-year anniversary special is currently slated October 6, 2010 and is highly anticipated.
106 & Park Video Hall of Fame
Every video that was voted onto the countdown 60 times would be retired and placed into the '106 & Park Hall of Fame'. This normally occurred relatively frequently, and earned Bow Wow the permanent title of Mister 106 & Park, and Aaliyah the permanent title of Miss 106 & Park for having the most #1's of their respective genders.
