Banijay Sells Entertainment Format into the Netherlands

PARIS/COPENHAGEN: Banijay International has scored a commission for My Parents Are Gonna Love You with the Netherlands’ NET 5.

The hidden-camera format sees singles pulling a prank on their parents as they bring home a celebrity and play it off as their fiancé. The series is set for an eight-episode run, being produced by BlazHoffski, for a launch on NET 5 in October in prime time.

Karoline Spodsberg, the managing director at Banijay International, said, “We are delighted to announce this major new production by NET 5. My Parents Are Gonna Love You is a fantastically original format offering perfect prime-time entertainment within a cost effective and versatile production. The hidden-camera setup leads to some truly hilarious and excruciatingly embarrassing moments, which we are confident will prove very popular with audiences everywhere as the format continues to extend its reach around the globe.”
