CANNES: Headlining Content Television’s drama slate is the 10×1-hour series 19-2, an English-language adaptation of the award- and ratings-winning French-Canadian series.

Set in Montreal, the drama follows the lives of two newly partnered patrol officers amidst the highly charged environment of the city’s 19th precinct. “19-2 is a richly nuanced drama that premiered in Canada to very strong ratings, bringing an intelligent, immersive series to prime-time schedules,” says Saralo MacGregor, the executive VP of worldwide distribution at Content Television & Digital.

Also from Content, The Au Pairs is a factual-entertainment series about four young women who travel abroad for the first time to live and work as au pairs in London. Sir Patrick Stewart narrates the feature doc Journey to Le Mans, about the world’s oldest endurance race.
