The 1990s proved to be a good year for boy bands like the Backstreet Boys, *NSYNC, 98 Degrees and O'Town, but after what seemed to be a promising start, the ever-changing music trends and tastes took their toll on the boy band industry, eventually burning it out and sending young artists into obscurity. However, a new reality series from VH1, Mission: Man Band, is bringing the spotlight back on the defeated industry by featuring four former boy band members as they attempt to find their way back into stardom.

Initially, the producers of the show wanted to make the reality series fun and upbeat, but along the way, they decided to take Mission: Man Band in a different direction.
