Un Gars, Une Fille Set for Slovakian Adaptation

Un Gars, Une Fille, the first iteration of the Love Bugs format that was broadcast on Québec television nearly 25 years ago, is slated to be adapted for Slovakian audiences for its 25th version.

TV JOJ will broadcast the local edition of Love Bugs in Slovakia under the title Tomáš & Diana. The Slovak adaptation will commence filming this summer. The contract was negotiated by Arabelle Pouliot-Di Crescenzo for Les Distributions Avanti Ciné Vidéo.

Un Gars, Une Fille launched on Radio-Canada on May 1, 1997.

Monique Lamoureux, co-president of distribution at Avanti Ciné Vidéo, said: “It’s fascinating to see that, after so many years, new adaptations of Guy A. Lepage’s universal concept continue to emerge around the world. Time obviously does not diminish the interest in the stories of this endearing couple.”
