FX U.K. Takes Charlie Jade

LONDON, March 27: Fox International Channels’ FX in the U.K.
has picked up the science-fiction series Charlie Jade from Park Entertainment.

This follows the broadcast of the series earlier this year
by sister FX channels in Japan and Southeast Asia. It focuses on a private
detective in a futuristic, polluted world who is caught up in a huge explosion
and catapulted into a parallel universe—present day Earth.

Jason Thorp, the senior VP and deputy MD for Fox
International Channels U.K., noted: "It's great to have some first run
sci-fi on FX, especially pure sci-fi such as Charlie Jade, which suits our male early adopting audience down
to the ground.”
