Fade Street is a reality television show produced by RTÉ Two in Ireland. The format is loosely based on the style of American reality television shows such as The Hills and The City. It follows the personal lives of a group of Dubliners, aged 20 to 29. The show's participants work in a variety of jobs, several of which are associated with the Dublin-based Stellar magazine.
According to RTÉ, the show is unscripted and responses are spontaneous. As in The Hills, many scenes in the show are manipulated by the show's creators. The characters are not given lines or a script, but instead react genuinely to the situations into which they are placed. Bystanders present during filming have called the reliability of this assertion into question, claiming the show's participants regularly do several retakes of scenes if the creators are not happy. In an RTÉ interview the cast denied allegations that the show is scripted, claiming that learning lines would be too difficult; Cici (one of the show's main characters) said, "it's completely unscripted".
The soundtrack, featuring songs used in the show coming from up-and-coming (or established) Irish music artists, is central to the series.
In August 2011 the show was renewed for a second season on RTÉ 2 Television, with the webisodes-portion exclusion on RTÉ Player.
