MIPCOM Spotlight: Zodiak Rights

CANNES: With around 500 hours of new content to offer, Zodiak Rights is particularly excited to showcase the hour-long series Switch, a comedy-drama about four witches.

Switch is “light on the supernatural and high on human interest,” says Jane Millichip, the managing director for the company. Millichip goes on to say that the show “reflects the new wave of supernatural dramas sweeping the U.S. and U.K. that have a far broader appeal than the old sci-fi channels.” Zodiak is also presenting Nation’s Brightest, a competition series seeking out the smartest person in the country. It has been enjoying success in Germany and was recently commissioned in the U.K. The quiz show Tipping Point gives contestants the opportunity to win a large cash prize from an arcade-style machine.
