It's Thursday, August 21, 2008, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: Marking the first purchase by NBC Universal's International Television Production unit, the company has decided to acquire 100% of U.K. indie production house Carnival Film & Television Ltd. The 30-year old company is known for its scripted drama, including BBC's Hotel Babylon and ITV's Midnight Man, Harley Street and the new Whitechapel. Carnival's current shareholders are Southern Star (75%) and Gareth Neame, Carnival's CEO (25%). The deal covers library rights and Southern Star's distribution rights. Carnival will be merged into NBC Universal's International TV Production division under the unit's London-based President, Angela Bromstad. Virgin Media Television's Virgin1 general entertainment channel acquired the exclusive rights to air ShineReveille International's new U.S. reality show, I Want to Work for Diddy. The 8x60-minute run, which already airs on the U.S.'s VH1, will arrive on Virgin1's fall lineup for its U.K. debut. In other news, Virgin1 will premiere its new The Prisoner: X factual entertainment series in the fall as well. The show (8x60-minutes) moves celebs into some of the world's harshest prisons to experience life as an inmate. It was produced for the network by Diverse Production Ltd. This time reality is nibbling back. FremantleMedia Enterprises picked up the global distribution and format rights (excluding the U.S. and Canada) to Comedy Central's first unscripted competition show, Reality Bites Back. The 8x30-minute 3Ball Productions series is hosted by Michael Ian Black. Britain's ITV2 wants to develop a British version of Paris Hilton's My New BFF, which has yet to make its original U.S. premiere. The agreement with Lionsgate also includes rights to the U.S. version making an autumn debut. ITV Productions, Lionsgate and Ish Entertainment will co-produce for a 2009 airing on ITV2. Endemol's Wipeout will make its way to 4 new international networks' 2008/2009 primetime lineup, bringing its sales count to 17 territories. Format rights were acquired by the U.K.'s BBC1, Spain's Telecinco, the Netherlands' RTL4 and Israel's Channel 10. Production for the 4 will be done by Endemol U.K.'s Initial, Endemol Spain, Endemol Netherlands and Channel 10, respectively. Past sales were already made to Germany's ProSieben, Australia's Nine Network and the Middle East's MBC. Here's the interesting part ... all of the reversions will be produced from Endemol's set in Argentina. The exception is the U.S.-based show produced by Endemol USA for ABC, per Variety. And a reminder - there will be no editions tomorrow of Cynopsis. We've got a late night tonight at the Cynopsis Foundation Charity Dinner & Auction, and the Cynopsis offices will be closed tomorrow. HISPANIC MARKET: MTV Latin America's Los Premios MTV Latin America 2008 is fast approaching with an October 16 date set for the award ceremony. It will air live to over 22 countries in the region and on MTV Tr3s in the U.S. Katy Perry, Paramore and Belanova are some of the performers committed to performing.
