Fifth Season for Made in Hollywood

LOS ANGELES: The syndicated magazine series Made in Hollywood from Connection III Entertainment has been renewed for a fifth season, while the sister series Made in Hollywood: Teen Edition was picked up for a fourth.

Made in Hollywood is available in more than 80 percent of U.S. TV households, with a gross average audience of 4.9 million viewers. Both Made in Hollywood and Made in Hollywood: Teen Edition were sold to the CBS Television Stations group in a 21-market deal for the 2009-2010 seas, adding to the roster that already includes the Hearst-Argyle, Belo, Tribune, McGraw Hill, Gannett, Lin, Meredith and Sinclair broadcast groups. The franchise also has a deal with MovieTickets.com for branded segments and cross promotions.

The series gives a behind-the-scenes look into the how and why of movies, featuring exclusive celebrity interviews and star profiles, as well as on-set coverage with directors, writers and producers and previewers of upcoming motion-picture and DVD releases.

“We’re excited to announce the renewal of the fifth season of Made in Hollywood and fourth season of Made in Hollywood: Teen Edition," said Cleveland O’Neal III, the founder, president and CEO of Connection III Entertainment. "This commitment from our local television station affiliates and national advertisers is a strong testament to the appeal and popularity of the Made in Hollywood brand.”
