Cynopsis: International
09/22/08

Good morning. It's Monday, September 22, 2008, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing.

INTERNATIONAL MARKET:

Eurosport is importing its high-def channel to Switzerland following a deal with Cablecom to offer Eurosport HD on its Cablecom Collection and Cablecom Sports & More packages in English and Italian.  This move marks the first time the channel will be broadcast in a German-speaking European territory.  In another European move, France's CanalSat will bring in Eurosport HD to its satellite and ADSL-distributed offerings as of December 7.

A new soccer channel, Gol TV, is in the plans for Spain's Mediapro as it gets set to launch the channel on Orange TV, France Telecom's IPTV platform.  The network will also make its debut in the country on Asturias' Telecable Basque and Country's Euskaltel, both regional cable operators.  The lineup will be a mix of recorded and live soccer match from Spain's Liga BBVA, the U.K.'s Premier League, Italy's Serie A and other European leagues and 3 Latin American tournaments.

Australia's ABC TV had decided to broadcast all 4 U.S. Presidential and Vice Presidential debates live and uninterrupted on ABC1, as well as streaming online at abc.net.au/news.  The 90-minute debates will be part of a series of ABC News Midday Report Specials over the next 4 weeks.

Program Call: If your company is attending MIPCOM with programming, we will include a cynopsized MIPCOM international and multicultural and MIP Junior program Shopping List in Cynopsis: International and Cynopsis: Kids the week before the market. So send along only the following info for your top 5 shows: title, availability date, number of episodes, length, type (i.e., movie, series, special, etc.), genre and your terms (barter, cash, etc.). If your company is interested in being included, please send the details to by Thursday, October 2, 2008.

HISPANIC MARKET:

Just when the time for decisions seemed to be approaching, the court battle has been postponed until December 2.  October 14 was supposed to have been the start of trial between Mexico's Televisa and the U.S.' Univision.  That was, of course, after it had been rescheduled several times over the past year, per Variety.

Scholastic Media's Maya & Miguel (
www.scholastic.com/mayaandmiguel and www.pbskids.org/mayaandmiguel) is celebrating its fifth anniversary on PBS KIDS GO!.  As part of the occasion and Hispanic Heritage Month (through October 15), the show will air episodes focusing on Latino culture, a new online game and events and appearances as part of the Maya & Miguel Latin Fun Fest.

EXECUTIVE MOVES:

BBC Worldwide named Tony Iffland as the new GM of BBC Worldwide Channels Australasia.  The former CEO of UKTV will now manage five channels in the BBC-branded portfolio, including UKTV, BBC HD, BBC Knowledge, CBeebies and BBC World News.  In another company move, Brendan Dahill, previously UKTV's Head/Programming, has been upped to Director/Television for BBC Worldwide Channels' Australasian operations.



Answer to Yesterday's Trivia Question:
  What player from the show Extreme Dodgeball, who was a member of the first season's winning team, appeared in the movie Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story?  TOBIAS MCKINNEY Kudos to: No one.

Today's Trivia QuestionThe staff at Seattle Grace (Grey's Anatomy) refer to Dr. Miranda Bailey as the what? (Email with your answer and be sure to include your name, company, city and time zone. Unofficial rules: Only the second four correct answers from each time zone will be mentioned; and once you've been mentioned in any of the Cynopsis editions, you can't be mentioned again that calendar week.)
