Showcase Secures Family Channel Deal for Adventure Show

WOODLAND HILLS, July 31:
California-based Showcase Entertainment has licensed its live-action kids’
adventure series Flight 29 Down
to Canada’s Family Channel.

The 30×30-minute show,
which has already launched on Family Channel’s weekend evening schedule,
follows the adventures of a group of kids who crash land on a deserted island
and must learn to survive the elements, and each other. It is executive produced
by Stan Rogow (Lizzie Maguire)
and Hawaii Film Partners.

The deal with Family
Channel comes on the heels recently closed agreements in Russia/CIS with
Central Partnership and in Turkey with Aresmedia, bringing the number of
countries airing Flight to nearly
100.
