Cynopsis:
International 06/18/08 Good morning. It's Wednesday, June 18, 2008, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: Nickelodeon is coming to southern Africa on July 1 following a multi-year distribution agreement signed between MTV Networks International and MultiChoice Africa. It will be a 24-hour English-language channel broadcast in Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia and Zimbabwe. MTV Networks Africa will be in charge of the channel's marketing and distribution in the region. Croatia's public broadcaster HRT acquired over 300 hours of BBC Worldwide drama and factual entertainment programming. Among other series such as Cranford and DinoSapien will be an additional 51 hours of natural history programming destined for HRT's BBC Wild-branded weekly 60-minute slot. Seven of National Geographic Television International's shows will head over to the U.K.'s Five. The history and science programs include the 60-minute Riddle of the Lost Romanovs, Death of the Iceman, Mystery of the Bog Mummies and China's Missing Mummies and 52-minute long Mighty Movers: Rock Eaters of Iceland, Mega Bridges: Denmark to Sweden and South Pole Super Structure. Berlin-based RTL Television and Canada's CBC are working together to co-produce a new English-language series titled Fashion Week with Dreamtool Entertainment and EOS Entertainment. As you might have thought, the show is set in the fashion world with 12 episodes as the initial commission. CROSS-MARKET: Founder Don Cornelius sold the Soul Train media franchise to MadVision Entertainment, Inc., which focuses on urban content and production. The deal covers the brand and the production rights for the weekly Soul Train series and a catalog of over 1,100 hours of footage from the show's 37-year run. HISPANIC MARKET: A date has been set! The trial between the U.S.' Univision and Mexico's Televisa has been postponed to October 14, a postponement move both companies had been interested in. However, Univision had just wanted a week extension beyond the original July 1 court date while Televisa had asked for September. The trial over an alleged breach of contract by Univision is connected to the 25-year Televisa/Univision programming supply agreement signed back in 1992, per Variety. Telemundo asks the question if it is possible to love that which we most hate in its newest telenovela, El Juramento. The show, the first original production from the new Telemundo Studios in Mexico, will premiere on June 30 at 8p starring Natalia Streignard, Ovaldo Rios, Salvador Pineda and others. In other Telemundo news, the June 16 premiere of its Sin Senos No Hay Paraiso at 10p brought the network 749,000 A18-49, according to Nielsen's NTI ratings. This was Telemundo's third highest novela debut in NTI behind Tierra de Pasiones and Victoria. In a few days time, Univision will present Querida Enemiga (Dear Enemy), a telenovela about a young girl with a passion for cooking and the envy and betrayal of her best friend and enemy. Debuting on June 23 at 7p, it stars Ana Layevska, Gabriel Soto and Jorge Aravena, among others. AFRICAN AMERICAN MARKET: On June 25 at 8p, BET News will debut the second run of its town hall series, Hip Hop vs. America II: Where Did The Love Go?. The discussion focuses on music videos, misogyny within the hip-hop culture, race vs. gender and much more. The 3-part special is hosted by BET News correspondent Jeff Johnson and hip hopper MC Lyte. GAY/LESBIAN MARKET: here! acquired both seasons of the U.K.'s Channel Four-produced Sugar Rush series from Sony Pictures Television. The first 10x30-minute season of the drama will debut on here! in Fall 2008. Sneak-peak screenings of the first 3 episodes will be offered for select preview audiences at several major LGBT film festivals. The show is based on the Julie Burchill novel of the same name about a 15-year old and her crush on her best friend and her life in general in the U.K. EXECUTIVE MOVES: ProSiebenSat.1's CEO, Guillaume de Posch, is resigning from his position at the end of 2008 at his own request. Although a replacement has not been named as of yet, the company did up German Free TV Group MD Andreas Bartl to the executive board. He will continue in his MD role and managing Kabel Eins, N24, ProSieben and Sat.1. A CYNOPSIS MESSAGE FROM CABLEU YOU HAVE GREAT IDEAS ... YOU HAVE GREAT EQUIPMENT ... YOU HAVE GREAT PEOPLE.
