Video Interview: Jon Kramer

NEW YORK: Jon Kramer, the chairman and CEO of Rive Gauche, talks in this video interview about the company’s dual strengths as a producer and distributor.

 

Rive Gauche Television’s "Something for Everyone" tagline speaks to its ability to meet the needs of a variety of broadcasters, supplying everything from wildlife, crime and investigation to sports and sci-fi. Hits from the catalogue include Operation Repo, which just scored pickups from Norway’s Viasat, TV4 in Sweden and Sony Africa, and Scare Tactics, a show hosted by 30 Rock‘s Tracy Morgan that was recently sold to Norway’s TV Norge, Sony Africa, AXN Asia and Citi Kino in Ukraine. Rive Gauche has also found continued success with Dog Whisperer, Pit Bulls & Parolees, Stupid Suspects, Sports Crash and Lisa Williams Live, which is now in its second season. The company recently made its first steps into the format arena, selling the game show Hunch to Endemol in France. Rive Gauche is looking to replicate that success with the new offerings Cyber Smarts and Style Diva.
