(offer valid thru Feb. 29th) 01/24/08 Good morning. It's Thursday, January 24, 2008, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: MySpace inked its first international deal with a major broadcaster, BBC Worldwide (BBCW), to import short video clips from BBCW programs. MySpaceTV users globally will be able to subscribe to a BBCW channel to see and share clips from shows such as Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Top Gear with more than 1,500 current and archived clips available. MTV is shuttering its 15-month old, U.K.-based MTV Flux channel and replacing it with MTV One Plus 1 in February. The channel will still continue its existence online with some of the content generated from its web users to make its way back onto TV screens. Flux Me I'm Famous (WT) will be a weekly 30-minute program based off of online discussions, airing on MTV2, Base, Hits and Dance. Power of 10 has been multiplied by 9 as Sony Pictures Television International (SPTI) inks a slew of global format deals. In addition to previously announced deals with Nine Network in Australia, Chilevision in Chile, TF1 in France and Mega in Greece, SPTI has reached agreements for local versions of Power of 10 with Telefe in Argentina, TV Globo in Brazil, RCN in Colombia, TV2 in Denmark, Gil Productions for Reshet in Israel, MBC in the Middle East, TV Norge in Norway, Channel 1 in Russia, and Kanal 5 in Sweden. YouTube launched a video sharing site ( www.youtube.co.kr ) in South Korea with content from local partners including CJ Internet, TU Media, and JYP Entertainment. The localized site is YouTube's 18th outside of the U.S. ITV's Granada International brokered a deal to bring a local version of the National Geographic quiz format, Nat Geo-Genius, to India. The 13-episode, 30-minute program launched this past weekend with host Rajat Kapoor. Sponsored by Lufthansa, the show was produced by National Geographic and India's Midditech. Two more international soccer competitions will make their way to ESPN360.com . The broadband sports network and InFront signed for the exclusive U.S. broadband rights for Italy's Serie A (aka Serie A TIM) and Coppa Italia (aka TIM Cup, Italian Cup). It will bring four Serie A matches per weekend to ESPN360.com for the remainder of the 2007-2008 season as well as live coverage of the same matches on a non-exclusive basis across other versions of ESPN360 globally, including in Mexico and Brazil. Matches are also available via pay-per-view via SerieA .tv . Additionally, Media Partners and ESPN360.com will offer up exclusive broadband coverage of all remaining Coppa Italia matches this year and the entire schedule for the next two seasons. Taffy Entertainment has inked new broadcast and cable deals in Spain and Portugal for a number of titles.
Toronto's The Nightingale Company is the new international rights holder to Peter Mohan's new comedy/drama series, Bodies and Soul. Peter will write and exec produce with TNC's Debbie Nightingale. G4 is taking viewers on a trip around the world with the premiere of Duty Free TV, a nightly programming block about the most irreverent and outrageous shows from across the globe. The first two shows in the block are Japanese imports, Unbeatable Banzuke and infomercial spoof Super Big Product Fun Show. Duty Free TV premieres February 4 at 830p before settling into its regular 830-10p weeknight schedule. Moonlight is leaving the U.S. to make its mark with U.K. viewers on LIVING, debuting on February 19 at 10p. A local hero (for us Connecticut folks) who lost his life in Iraq but inspired a charitable idea that took flight internationally … On January 27 at 11p, SportsCenter on ESPN will tell how Iraqi children have benefited from the generosity of late Army Private Nick Madaras, a Wilton, CT native and soccer player/coach. He was killed before his request to his parents to send used soccer balls to him to distribute to kids playing with old balls or cans could be fulfilled. A fellow Wilton resident worked with the family to collect over 1,500 soccer balls, placing Nick's name on them, and sending them to Iraq where U.S. soldiers would distribute them. HISPANIC MARKET: Telemundo Communications Group, Inc. has agreed to settle a federal lawsuit filed by Grupo Televisa in Miami. This suit alleged that Telemundo interfered with Televisa's contract with the actor Mauricio Islas. The federal courts ruled that Televisa was entitled to pursue its claims under Florida law, and that the contract between Televisa and Mauricio Islas was a valid and enforceable civil contract. The network stated that it would abide by the rulings and respect Televisa's rights in its contracts with actors and other artists. Marcos Santana, Telemundo International's President said: "Telemundo is glad that Televisa accepted the settlement offered by Telemundo and that this four year controversy with Grupo Televisa is over so Telemundo can focus on future projects with Grupo Televisa." Speaking of Telemundo, the company is set to announce a new deal with a major Brazilian broadcaster on February 29 from NATPE. We'll keep you posted.
