About True Jackson, VP
True Jackson is a quick-witted 15-year-old with a serious eye for fashion who lands a job most adults would envy, becoming vice president of the youth apparel line at a major clothing company. Instead of a slow apprenticeship she steps into meetings, design decisions, and office politics, all while juggling school, friendships, and family life. The show plays out as a series of fast, funny episodes in which True's optimism and creativity collide with corporate rules, demanding bosses, and the occasional wardrobe emergency, and her youthful perspective upends expectations in an adult workplace without giving away any big surprises.
Created by Andy Gordon and first released in 2008, the series stars Keke Palmer as True Jackson, with Danielle Bisutti, Matt Shively, Ashley Argota and Ron Butler in key roles, showcasing a young ensemble across episodes blending fashion and comedy.
True Jackson, VP helped raise Keke Palmer's profile, giving her an early platform that introduced her to a wider audience. Its bright visuals, bold outfits and teen-centered office premise made it a touchstone for viewers interested in style and youthful leadership, and it influenced how kid and teen networks mixed workplace setups with coming-of-age humor.
Audience reaction has generally been positive, reflected in a 7.9/10 user average from available votes, with praise aimed at the show's energy, comedic timing and family-friendly tone. Major themes include confidence, teamwork, creative problem solving and friendship, delivered through light workplace satire and age-appropriate conflict that keeps episodes brisk and approachable.
The series didn't collect major industry awards, but it maintained steady popularity with its target demographic and is remembered for its upbeat tone and for launching its lead into bigger projects. Fans often cite its humor and fashion-forward moments when recalling the show.
