HONG KONG\/MUNICH: MediaCorp in Singapore has secured the first-window rights for the cooking competition The Taste<\/em>, scoring the U.S. version as well as the option to make its own local treatment, while the Lifestyle Network channel in the Philippines took on the ready-made ABC show. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

ABC is ready for an eight-episode version of The Taste<\/em> that is led by Nigella Lawson and Anthony Bourdain, who will lead a panel of four judges. The show was created by Kinetic Content, Red Arrow’s U.S. production company. The international rights are held by Red Arrow International. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Joy Olby-Tan, the VP of network acquisitions at MediaCorp Channel 5, said, <\/span><\/span>"We were sold on The Taste<\/em>‘s hot-formula pedigree of two of the culinary world’s superstars. MediaCorp is pleased to have picked up the first-window rights for Singapore and we can’t wait to bring this potential hit to our viewers across multiple platforms in 2013."  <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Macie Ferreros Imperial, the head of program acquisition at creative programs Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of ABS-CBN Corporation, commented, "We are very excited to air The Taste <\/em>in the Philippines not only for it’s interesting format but also because it showcases two very popular celebrity chefs. Nigella Lawson and Anthony Bourdain have quite a following on the Lifestyle Network channel and we are eager to watch how their chemistry develops on the show."<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jamie I, the senior sales manager Asia at Red Arrow International in Hong Kong, added, "This is amazing. With its key ingredients of nerve-wrecking competition and delicious food The Taste <\/em>created a huge buzz all over the world. After the sale to India we are absolutely psyched that it will now air in two more Asian territories."
