Undercover Underage is a reality show on discovery+ that follows Ron Simon, a former detective and current private investigator, as he works to catch businesses that sell alcohol to minors. The show premiered in 2021 and features six episodes. Each episode focuses on a different location, usually a convenience store or a gas station, that has been flagged for selling alcohol to underage customers. Using hidden cameras and other surveillance techniques, Simon and his team observe the businesses and collect evidence of illegal sales.

Throughout the show, Simon emphasizes the importance of preventing underage drinking and the negative consequences that can result from it. He also educates viewers on the methods that businesses can use to prevent these sales, such as asking for identification and training employees.

One of the standout aspects of the show is the way it presents both sides of the issue. While Simon is determined to catch businesses breaking the law, he also acknowledges the challenges that come with being a small business owner. Many of the businesses he investigates are run by individuals who are struggling to make ends meet, and Simon takes care to show empathy towards their situations.

Another interesting element of the show is the use of technology. Simon and his team utilize state-of-the-art equipment to capture footage of the illegal sales, including cameras that are small enough to hide in a pack of cigarettes and a miniature printer that generates fake IDs for the purposes of the investigation. The show also delves into the legal and ethical implications of this technology, raising questions about privacy and the extent to which investigators should go in order to catch lawbreakers.

Overall, Undercover Underage is a thought-provoking and engaging show that shines a light on a serious issue. It is a must-watch for anyone who is interested in law enforcement, technology, or social justice.

Undercover Underage is a series that ran for 2 seasons (16 episodes) between November 2, 2021 and on discovery+
