VH1's next slate of docs: TRL, Napster, '92 riots

WHAT’S UP, DOCS? VH1’s Emmy-winning Rock Docs series will look back at the glory days of sister channel MTV's TRL, Napster and the relationship between hip-hop and the 1992 L.A. riots, the L.A. Times reports. The TRL Decade, slated for December, will feature clips and interviews with Good Charlotte, Kid Rock, NSYNC, Mandy Moore, Nas and Pete Wentz. Along with onetime VJs Carson Daly, Damien Fahey, Hilarie Burton, Vannessa Minnillo and La La Anthony are also interviewed. Uprising: Hip Hop and the L.A. Riots will air in April. Also coming next year is Downloaded, for which Shawn Fanning and Sean Parker are being interviewed. VH1 has also snagged the network TV rights for Michael Jackson: This is It, which will air Nov. 7, and Davis Guggenheim’s 2008 guitar-hero doc It Might Get Loud, set to air in January. (10/19a)
