Pignon sur rue is a Quebec television program from 1995 to 1999, on Télé-Québec. Almost 30 years after its first broadcast, the reality show Pignon sur rue was back on Télé-Québec in fall of 2024, airing daily 4 times per week and produced by Trinome & Filles company. The show is back with a new season in fall of 2025 airing daily 3 times per week.
In modern terms, the show could be classified as reality television. This precursor of the genre is often cited by Québécois intellectuals[which?] as a more intelligent and respectable form, before the Loft Story and Occupation Double era.
Each season centered on a number of young people from Franco-Ontarian, Acadian and Quebec regions, living in one or more Montreal apartments. They did not know each other before the adventure, except on season four. Its original theme song was composed and performed by Gaspé chansonnier Kevin Parent.
