MIAMI: Lisa Kudrow’s award-winning improvised comedy series Web Therapy is getting a Spanish treatment courtesy of FremantleMedia Spain for Movistar+’s new channel #0.

FremantleMedia International (FMI) is handling global distribution for the show, launching it at NATPE in Miami this week. The 16-episode half-hour series is scheduled to premiere next month. Actress, stand-up comedian and TV host Eva Hache (Got Talent España) plays narcissistic therapist Rebeca Miller, with Gonzalo de Castro as her husband, Federico Pinto. Among those lined up as regulars are Quim Gutierrez, Hugo Silva, Ana Milán and Martiño Rivas. Top-name Spanish stars are also expected to make cameo appearances.

Web Therapy is a truly hilarious, engaging yet relatable series with a spectrum of characters,” said Nathalie Garcia, CEO of FremantleMedia Spain. “We are enjoying working with Movistar+ to adapt this series for the Spanish audiences and looking forward to the premiere in February. We’re also delighted that FMI will distribute the finished tape worldwide and is bringing the show to NATPE.”

This is the second adaptation of the acclaimed comedy; FremantleMedia Poland adapted the show for TVN earlier this year.
