MIPTV 2009: SevenOne International to present extensive format slate
Munich, March 19, 2009. SevenOne International, the ProSiebenSat.1 Groups programming sales company, will be presenting an extensive line-up of new formats at MIPTV in Cannes from March 30 to April 3.
Jens Richter, Managing Director of SevenOne International: We will be heading to MIPTV with an array of creative and successful programming and we are convinced that our portfolio offers many quality formats with high international potential. Think of Clockwise and The Wedding I Did (nt) Have that have just been nominated for a Rose DOr and already been sold to key territories like Spain, Italy and France. Think of international smash hits like Beat the Star. This years line-up will surely have our worldwide partners intrigued.
The first inventors show The Best Idea (produced by IDTV Film & Video Productions B.V.) has been fascinating Dutch viewers on SBS 6 since 2004. The groundbreaking show in search of the most creative hobby inventor will soon be airing on Germanys Sat.1. Based on the international hit format Beat your Host!, Beat the Star (produced by Raab TV/BRAINPOOL) will soon be debuting its second season on UKs leading ITV1. A German version premiered in mid-March on ProSieben with outstanding ratings. Already a smash hit on Swedens Kanal 5 and sold to Norway, The Angry Carpenter (produced by Nordisk Film) helps home renovators who failed badly on their DIY mission. In the reality show The Hotel on Belgiums VT4 (produced by Kanakna), five couples get the chance to renovate a worn-out hotel and run the place - if they can cope with the most unusual guests. Real Profilers (produced by Mediacircus) allows a captivating look over the shoulder of international profilers, as they reopen cold cases. The crime series first aired on Norways TVNorge and prompted an immense media buzz. On Belgiums Eén, Tomorrows Doctors (produced by SULTAN SUSHI) follows young medical students on their way to becoming top physicians. The Sat.1 show Mister Perfect (produced by Werner Kimmig GmbH) puts male candidates to the test and has an entirely female jury plus a women-only studio audience decide. ProSiebens clip-show Superspots (produced by RedSeven Entertainment) presents spectacular never-before-seen commercials.
