It's Tuesday, January 30, 2007, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: MercuryMedia International and PBS are partnering up to offer PBS content to airline passengers globally through Mercury's in-flight distribution unit. Some of the shows to be offered on flights include Texas Ranch House, Ken Burns' Jazz, Jean Michel Cousteau's Ocean Adventures, Suze Orman: For the Young Fabulous and Broke, Lewis and Clark, and Unforgivable Blackness: The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson. PBS will add 10-20 hours of new available content for participating airlines to choose from each month. Astral Media's The Movie Network will launch its MMore HD on February 1 on Rogers Cable's Ontario service, followed by additional eastern Canadian rollouts in the coming months. The 24-hour high-def channel features simulcasts of HD programming from The Movie Network's MMore, MExcess, MFun! and MFest channels. The programming includes HBO and Showtime series, Hollywood movies, original The Movie Network drama shows, all uncut and commercial free. The service will also present action movies from MExcess, comedies from MFun! and independent and foreign cinema from MFest. Chinese authorities have refused to renew both ESPN and Star Sports' permits to air in the country as a foreign network. No explanation about the refusal was released by China's State Administration for Radio, Film and Television. With no explanation, speculation is it has something to do with soccer rights as several local Chinese channels grouped together to air English Premier League matches. Other speculate it's a simple administrative issue. ESPN Star Sports contends that it is still involved in the rights renewal process. Both channels are operated by ESPN Star Sports (News Corporation/Disney joint venture) from Singapore. Two preschool series will make their Canadian debut on Family Channel next month, as part of its weekday morning Playhouse block (8:45-11:50a) that features Disney programming.
MTV Networks India is teaming up with Adlabs to co-produce and jointly own youth-targeted movies for release in India. Adlabs would work with MTV's Fully Faltoo Films to take care of the final script, cast members, and the director. More to come on who will be in what productions when. Canada's Global Television will premiere the second season of its comedy series, The Jane Show, on February 7 at 10p. The 13 episode half hour series from Shaftesbury Film will continue to focus on Jane's exploration of corporate culture and lessons in office life. Priority Public Relations (PPR) has been named the agency-of-record for Singapore's Media Development Authority, a government agency created in part to develop global awareness of Singapore's media industry. Priority Public Relations is charged with handling global trade and business media coverage of the Singapore Media Fusion initiative and its resulting projects and alliances. PPR recently worked with MDA in launching the Singapore Media Fusion initiative in October 2006.

Based in LA, he will be in charge of daily operations including business development, legal and business affairs, production, operations, engineering, IT, and Human Resources. Most recently, Mr. Bolter was the EVP at Wobo Media. Answer to Yesterday's trivia question: The scenario was this. Matthew was the lazybones mooch of a brother who lived with his sister, an attorney named Vivian, wife of sports announcer Michael. What show did this all take place on during the 90's? ARSENIO Kudos to: Uh oh! Nobody. Here's another. Today's Trivia Question: Louis Bellson was the bandleader and husband to the star of this short lived musical variety program during the 70's. Who was the main star? ( with your answer and be sure to include your name, company, city and time zone. Unofficial rules: Only the second four correct answers from each time zone will be mentioned; and once you've been mentioned in any of the Cynopsis editions, you can't be mentioned again that calendar week.)
