Portfolio Scores Thai Deal

TORONTO, April 20: Portfolio
Entertainment has licensed all seven seasons of Top Dogs, featuring worldwide sports for canines, to True
Visions Public Company Limited (formerly UBC) in Thailand.

The deal for 84 episodes
is Portfolio’s first with the Thai platform, and its first sale of the series
since acquiring it from Polar Bear Entertainment in 2006.

“With the success of Top
Dogs
in North America we are
excited to further expand the program’s reach into the international
marketplace with True Visions,” said Jon Rutherford, the company’s sales
manager. “We look forward to
continuing to build a prosperous relationship with True Visions over the coming
months not only with this program but with additional content from our
library.”

“When we saw Top Dogs for the first time at MIPCOM, we believed the
series would resonate with our viewers,” added Nisa Sittasrivong, program
acquisitions officer at True Visions Public Company Limited.
