Discovery Channel is giving viewers a second chance to see the award-winning 11-part series Planet Earth next month after debuting it last spring. The network will rerun the hi-def series with two episodes each night for six weeks starting November 11 at 8p. TV Guide Network has picked up the repurposing rights of ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live, airing the show at 7pm, less than 24 hours after the original, reports THR. And if you hadn’t noticed, this all started this past Monday. Can’t say why TV Guide did this so quietly. ~ PRODUCTION & DEVELOPMENT ~
Discovery Communications tapped Andy Friendly to develop and executive produce a new series for Planet Green, Discovery’s new environmentally-focused channel that will debut next year. Andy, who is President of Andy Friendly Productions and producer and originator of Entertainment Tonight, will also consult on programming and production for Planet Green.
AMC is on track in developing a sci fi horror series called 99 Stories, developed and written by David Seltzer, reports THR. The story is set in a brand new high rise building with … you guessed it … 99 stories. A group of people are invited to come and tour the high-tech building, but once inside they cannot leave. Instead, at the mercy of some sort of electronic brain that controls the entire building, they are forced to complete challenges – one for every floor, and those who complete it successfully move up to the next floor.
