Cynopsis: Multi-Cultural & International
Edition 11/15/06 Good Morning. It's Wednesday, November 15, 2006, and this is your first early morning Multi-Cultural briefing. HISPANIC MARKET: Fuego Entertainment, Inc. has launched KVPX Channel 28 in Las Vegas. This FuegoTV network station is currently broadcasting varied content, including films, talk shows, gaming events, and sports. The company runs the station under a lease management agreement that includes a 2-year purchase option of $3.2 million. Fuego is a media and entertainment company primarily engaged in the Spanish-speaking programming TV broadcasting on its US television network, FuegoTV, with stations in Las Vegas and Puerto Rico. Following in the footsteps of Hello Betty and MTV's new Road to Menudo, World of Wonder Prods. (WWP) has come up with a new English-language reality show to target Spanish-, bilingual- and English-speaking audiences. WWP teamed up with Miami-based Latin World Entertainment (LWE) to produce Viva Hollywood, a show in which Latin American telenovela stars on LWE's roster will come to the U.S. to break into the TV and movie market here. Exec producers are Tom Campbell with WWP principals Randy Barbato and Fenton Bailey according to Variety. ABC Radio Networks signed an agreement with Todobebe to distribute 30-second parenting tips on ABC Radio Networks en Espanol. Todobebe Tips will be hosted by Todobebe co-founder/co-host Jeannette Kaplun. The Todobebe vignettes will offer answers to audience problems and fun interactive ideas. The tips will begin broadcasting on ABC Radio Networks en Espanol's Hispanic Morning Drive and Hispanic Advantage Network in the spring. Acceso Maximo (All Access), Galavision's interactive music show, and host Carlos Calderon will broadcast live from Tampa for their November 17 show at 9p. Special guests include co-host Jackie Guerrido, Latin musician Tito Puente Jr., and Miss Venezuela Tampa Bay Claudia Sinram. LATAM MARKET: Hey, did you know that Nickelodeon Latin America is turning 10 this year on December 20? GAY/LESBIAN MARKET: OUTtv will air a full day of programming featuring films, documentaries, and marquee performances on December 1 for World AIDS Day, beginning at 930 in the morning and continuing thru 11 o'clock in the evening:
INTERNATIONAL MARKET: It looks like Al-Jazeera International (AJI) will not put in a permanent appearance in the U.S. at this time. The channel is launching today around the globe but Comcast Communications decided to withdraw from distribution talks with the Arab broadcaster. AJI was hoping for a national rollout agreement to reach Comcast's 12.1 million digital subscribers while Comcast only offered a regional rollout. The English-language channel is reportedly in various stages of talks with other industry players such as Cox Communications and hopes to gain carriage on DirecTV or Dish Network satellite TV operators in the future. Not to fret though … U.S. viewers can still catch the channel online. And as of its launch today, AJI will be available to 70 million homes around the globe with distribution in Australia, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Poland and the U.K. Buena Vista International Television inked a multi-year Pay-Per-View licensing agreement with the On Demand Group, acting as Pay-Per-View partner for Germany's cable operator Kabel Deutschland. This agreement will bring a range of current, upcoming and library movies to Kabel Deutschland subscribers across Germany via its digital cable service Select KINO. The feature films include Walt Disney Pictures, Touchstone Pictures and Miramax Films pictures. In addition, the agreement includes future efforts to cooperate against piracy of BVITV's content. Granada International will debut a wide range of programming at this month's Asia Television Forum. Headline programming available includes a new TV dramatization of Bram Stoker's horror story Dracula (1x90), a Granada/WGBH co-production for BBC Wales in association with Granada International. Prime Suspect 7 (2x95), an ITV Productions in association with WGBH Boston; in addition to other fare such as Tripping Over (6x47), Hollywood TV Movies Wildfires (1x90), Locusts: Day of Destruction (1x90), and Dangerous Waters: Shark Attack (1x90). The Amazing Race raced to the top last week with the debut of The Amazing Race Asia last Thursday on Sony Pictures Television Intl.'s AXN Asia. It pulled into first place for the 9p slot in Singapore and Malaysia and second in the Philippines according to Variety. EXECUTIVE MOVES: Jorge Plasencia will be leaving his position as Univision Radio Network's Corporate VP/Operating Manager in the coming weeks to join the new Miami-based branding/advertising/communications company, Republica, as its Chairman/CEO. The company was started by Luis Casamayor, who will serve as CCO and President. Luis is also the founder of the Miami-based Cosmyk Group creative agency, which will work side-by-side with Republica and share staff. Republica will work with some of Cosmyk Group clients and center on U.S. Hispanic and Latin American companies.
