It's Thursday, May 8, 2008, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: German cable TV operator Kabel Deutschland has signed on the dotted line again with Premiere AG to carry the network until the end of 2012. The renewed distribution agreement will continue to bring Premiere 9 million households. As part of their new deal, ESPN's www.ESPN360.com and InFront Group's InFront AMS digital media unit will make the broadband network the exclusive U.S. home for Euroleague Basketball over the 2008/2009 and 2009/2010 seasons. Starting in October, over 40 games a season will be carried as well as video highlights. Games not carried by www.ESPN360.com will be available on a PPV basis on www.Euroleague.tv . Virgin Media Television's Virgin1 general entertainment channel is combining 3 one-off factual programs to form The Rude Season series. The 60-minute documentary My Free Boobs (wt) from Amaze TV explores the internet trend of social networking websites where women can raise cash for breast implants by attracting male benefactors. Another Amaze TV production, Happy Birthday Vi@gra (note: the "@" is there to fool your spam filter, not how the title really appears), marks the 10th anniversary since the drug's first NHS approval. Endemol's Cheetah Television produced the last of the trio with a look at The S#x Lives of Twins. CROSS-MARKET: Gospel Music Channel has been launched on Time Warner Cable Corpus Christi and Time Warner Cable Flower Mound. LATAM MARKET: Hearst Corporation and Liberty Global's Cosmopolitan TV Latin America is producing its first Spanish-language fiction program with the 30-minute Toilette comedy series.

HISPANIC MARKET: Galavision is partnering with Ultimate Fighting Championship to present El Octagono del UFC (The UFC's Octagon), a weekly program with the best of UFC fight highlights.
