NBC picked up two trophies at Saturday’s 2015 Producers Guild of America Awards in LA: The Voice (NBC) for competition television, and The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon (NBC) for live entertainment and talk. Rounding out the other TV categories were Orange Is the New Black (Netflix) for comedy, Cosmos: A Space Odyssey (Fox/NatGeo) for non-fiction TV and Sesame Street (PBS) for outstanding children’s program. As previously announced, HBO’s The Normal Heart was honored with the Stanley Kramer Award for raising awareness of important social issues.
David Letterman takes a turn as guest on CBS’s Late Late Show on Tuesday, January 27, with Regis Philbin in the host seat. The late nighter, from Letterman’s Worldwide Pants, is using guest hosts to fill the void between the exit of Craig Ferguson last December, and James Corden’s start on March 23.
NBCUniversal is pulling out of pay TV in Russia. “Due to the challenging economic environment for our pay-TV channels (Universal Channel and E! Entertainment Television) in Russia, Universal Networks International has made the decision to no longer operate in the market and is looking at alternative opportunities for its channels’ business,” said the company, adding that it “remains committed” to the Russian market, with Universal Pictures International and NBCUniversal International Television Distribution continuing operations there. Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a bill effective January 1 banning commercials on Russian pay TV.
Season four of Discovery reality show Amish Mafia, launching Tuesday, February 10 at 9p, will be its last. The series, which has been criticized for misrepresenting the Amish, is “not really being consistent with Rich Ross’s vision for the network,” Laurie Goldberg, group EVP of public relations, told Multichannel News. New net president Ross told reporters at TCA earlier this month, “The most important thing is authenticity.”
Heading the Auschwitz: The Past Is Present committee is David Zaslav, president and CEO of Discovery Communications. The aim of the group – which also includes Steven Spielberg, Barry Diller, Les Moonves and Jeff Zucker, among others – is to further the voice of the dwindling numbers of Holocaust survivors by creating ongoing education programs. “Holocaust survivors have carried the burden of sharing their testimony for decades. As time passes and we continue to lose more of these witnesses, it becomes imperative that we extend their voices to drive awareness and remembrance of the Holocaust for future generations,” Zaslav tells Cynopsis. “As we continue to face ethnic and religious intolerance around the world, it is our hope that by preserving the voices of Auschwitz survivors and creating initiatives to educate today’s youth, we are helping to ensure that such brutalities are never repeated and never forgotten.”
A partially-shot HBO documentary from Martin Scorsese about Bill Clinton has stalled, according to the New York Times, because the former POTUS wants more control over the project than the Oscar-winning director is willing to cede. Said HBO, “It’s not happening soon but that doesn’t mean it’s not going to happen.” Likely complicating matters is Hillary Clinton’s potential 2016 run for the Oval Office.
A Teamsters strike that could have impacted television commercial production in 14 western states was averted when the union ratified a deal covering drivers and location managers. “This is good news for the industry and good news for our members,” said Local 399 secretary-treasurer Steve Dayan.
Outdoor Channel handed out 17 trophies at its 15th Annual Golden Moose Awards on Thursday. Presenters include former Vice Presidential hopeful Sarah Palin (Amazing America with Sarah Palin) and Gerald McRaney (House of Cards and the net’s Ram Outdoorsman), and singer (and winner for Fan Favorite Best Host, for Spirit in the Wild) Ted Nugent, who performed. Honorary Lifetime Achievement Award was given to Harold Knight and David Hale of Ultimate Hunting.
Turner kids net Boomerang has a new look, part of an overall global rebrand that started last year. The channel launched in the U.S. in April 2000.

Viewers vote for their favorites here.

Brands unwilling or unable to pony up $4.5 million for a Super Bowl ad might take some comfort from the 2015 Brand Keys Super Bowl Ad Engagement Survey, which predicts only 46 percent of the brands running ads in this year’s game will entertain and engage viewers enough to drive consumer behavior. “Brands need to entertain if they want buzz, but today, if brands want to see real ROI, it isn’t enough just to entertain consumers,” said Robert Keys, founder and president of consumer loyalty research consultancy Brand Keys. “Consumers need to be emotionally engaged with ads.” Hitting the sweet spot this year will be BMW, Doritos, Dove Men + Care, GoDaddy, Mercedes, Nissan, Paramount Pictures, Pepsi, Skittles, Snickers, Toyota and WeatherTech, projects the company.
Golden opportunity: Princess Cruises is the first sponsor of WE tv’s WatchW/In initiative, offering viewer incentives designed to promote immediate social conversations and deliver viewing within the three-day ratings window. The Princess brand will be integrated into on-air promotional spots during premiere episodes of the David Tutera Celebrations airing Fridays at 10; viewers who enter a code word at wetv.com will be entered to win a seven-day Caribbean cruise. “With Princess Cruises celebrating its golden 50th anniversary this year through a variety of special onboard experiences, this show tie-in was a natural fit,” said Gordon Ho, SVP of marketing and North American sales.
Richard Lewis (Curb Your Enthusiasm) is onboard Starz comedy Blunt Talk, from Seth MacFarlane (Family Guy) and Jonathan Ames (Bored to Death). Series stars Patrick Stewart (Star Trek: The Next Generation).
