TransGeneration was an American reality television series that aired on the Sundance Channel in 2005. The show followed the lives of four transgender college students, Staci Ignacio, Lucas Cheadle, Raci Ignacio, and Andrea Gabrielle Gibson, as they navigated their gender transitions while attending classes at different universities in the United States.

The series was a groundbreaking portrayal of the transgender community, and it was the first time that transgender people were portrayed as complex, multi-dimensional individuals in a mainstream TV show. The show tackled important issues related to the transgender community, such as coming out, family acceptance, dating, sexuality, and gender identity.

The show followed each of the four protagonists closely, and each episode focused on a particular aspect of their lives. Staci Ignacio was a Filipino-American transgender woman attending California State University, Los Angeles, where she studied psychology. She was also a devout Catholic and struggled with reconciling her faith with her gender identity. The show depicted her struggles with family acceptance, as well as her relationship with her boyfriend, who was also transgender.

Lucas Cheadle was a transgender man attending Smith College, an all-women's college in Northampton, Massachusetts. He faced unique challenges as a transgender man in an all-women's college, and he struggled with his identity as a person of color. The show explored his relationship with his family, as well as his complicated romantic life.

Raci Ignacio was Staci's younger brother, and he was also transgender. He was attending California State University, Fullerton, and he was interested in activism and social justice. The show followed his journey as he came out to his family and friends, and as he dealt with discrimination and acceptance within the transgender community.

Finally, Andrea Gabrielle Gibson was a transgender woman attending Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts. She was a poet and performance artist, and the show explored her artistic endeavors as well as her struggles with alcoholism and addiction.

Overall, TransGeneration was a groundbreaking show that gave a voice to the transgender community and provided much-needed representation for an often-marginalized group. The show was praised for its honest portrayal of the struggles faced by transgender people, and it was celebrated for its ability to humanize and normalize the transgender experience. TransGeneration remains a landmark TV show that paved the way for greater representation of transgender people in the media.

Transgeneration is a series that ran for 1 seasons (9 episodes) between July 10, 2007 and on Sundance Channel
