:
"Even with the strike on and all my accounts being on hold now ... I still had to 'squeeze' CableU into my budget. Thanks for a wonderful service!" CableU - We're here for U ! www.CableU.tv - Know Networks Better. Pitch Smarter. Cynopsis: International 11/12/07 Good morning. It's Monday, November 12, 2007, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: Granada International's The Champions series is to be remade in Hollywood. Guillermo del Toro will write, direct and produce the science fiction action film for United Artists. It will be produced by C/W Productions and executive produced by Robert Green, formerly of Granada International. The Boys From Baghdad High, a BBC and HBO Documentary Films co-production, is a new 90-minute documentary about the lives of four Iraqi kids capturing a year of their lives through their own cameras. Production was done by British production companies Renegade Pictures and StoryLabTV. It will air first on BBC2 on January 8 and then in the U.S. on HBO as a 75-minute program, according to Variety. Correction : The new series, Dad's In The Attic, is a Breakout Films, Muse Entertainment, and Summit Crescent Productions co-production produced in association with Canada's YTV and France 2. Friday's edition incorrectly stated YLE. Australia's ABC TV takes a stand to not attend or support either of this year's annual the Australian Film Institute Awards ceremonies following the AFI's decision to shift a number of the TV categories from the televised ceremony (December 6) to the non-televised ceremony (December 5). ABC TV believes the move "shows a lack of respect for the television nominees, and seriously diminished the role television plays in the ceremony." Key TV categories being moved off of the televised ceremony include bests in Children's Drama, Comedy Series, light entertainment, supporting actor/actress, direction, screenplay, and performance in a TV comedy. ABC's Director/Television, Kim Dalton explains the broadcaster has, "spoken with the AFI to see if there is any way they will address our concerns, and they have advised us that changes can't be made." CROSS-MARKET: ABC is starting off the holiday season with the classic 30-minute animated Thanksgiving-themed PEANUTS special, A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, created by late cartoonist Charles M. Schulz. It will air with Spanish subtitles via secondary closed captioning on November 20 at 8p. It's Cynopsis Broadcast Calendar time!
