When watching "TRANSform Me," the show claims to provide more information of transgender issues and education on its website, however, upon close look at VH1's site, we were unable to find any such information. Below are some links that introduce the show when it first premiered:

In response to Asa's "Intervention," we found this youtube clip of his friend that was featured on the show as "his best friend," (we suspect his boyfriend..). This clip is of Asa's friend discussing how he felt that he was portrayed inaccurately on the show, which comments upon the show's production as that which emphasizes and de-emphasizes certain things in order to make the show more marketable, dramatic, and enticing for viewers. Let us know what you think!
