Classic Media made a broadcast deal involving the new animated tween series My Life Me. Germany’s kids’ TV platform KI.KA  Der Kinderkanal will premiere the series starring Svetlana Chmakova in early 2011 with a continued broadcast commitment over the next five years.

Canada’s CarpeDiem Film & TV and France’s FROG BOX produce the series with backing from broadcasters TELETOON Canada Inc. and FranceTelevisions and Canal J as co-producers. My Life Me will additionally debut in Canada and France during the next year.

As a follow up to the pending retransmission-consent agreement between Fox Networks and Cablevision Systems, Congressman Peter King (NY) released this statement:

“Yesterday I called on News Corp. and Cablevision to resolve their differences and reach a contract by October 15th so that broadcast programming — particularly baseball playoffs and key NFL football games distributed on News Corp. broadcast channels — would not be interrupted or “pulled” from customer homes as part of a negotiating tact once that deadline is reached.

“I am increasingly concerned that this deadline may pass without a resolution, and Long Island consumers will lose their programming. This would be an unconscionable result and unfair to sports and programming fans who have no part in this fight.

“Accordingly, I urge both Cablevision and News Corp. to agree, now, to submit to a binding arbitration before a neutral third party to get a contract. Further, I urge them, even while that arbitration is pending, not to remove programming from Cablevision customers so long as the parties are engaged in the arbitration or negotiating. This protects both parties’ reasonable positions, ensures a timely contract resolution, and protects consumers from becoming pawns in a price battle between two businesses, both of which are important to Long Island consumers.”

TUFF TV, a digital broadcast network with original programming targeting M18-49, picked up the rights to Punk’d, created by Ashton Kutcher. Punk’d will air as a Monday-Friday strip in primetime at 830p.

Other returning Telco E/I shows include Animal Rescue, Dog Tales, Dragonfly TV, SWAP TV and Missing.

MSNBC’s Morning Joe hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are teaming on the development of a primetime series titled Young Turks for NBC. The duo will serve as consulting producers on the possible hour-long drama about 20-somethings in New York who are involved with politics, the media and finance. John Romano is executive producing.

CBS bought a one-hour crime drama script Siringo from Trey Callaway, the co-executive producer on CSI: NY, cites Variety. CBS Studios will produce the pilot about the life of cowboy Charlie Siringo, a Pinkerton Agency agent who worked to catch bad guys in the late 1800s Old West. Callaway will executive produce along with Mace Neufeld.

CBS is further developing a series called Grave Sight based on the mystery novels by Charlaine Harris from Harper Connelly, per Variety. Harris is the author of the Sookie Stackhouse books that have turned into the successful HBO series True Blood. The CBS project is about a woman who is struck by lightning and is able to see the last moments of the dead.
