TV Formats takes a look at the format highlights to come out of this year\u2019s MIPCOM.<\/em><\/p>\n

With drama still riding high on buyers\u2019 wish lists across the international programming industry, scripted formats have been feeling the residual glow. The deals secured at MIPCOM last week provided further testament to this trend.<\/p>\n

The U.S. broadcast net\u00a0NBC acquired the rights for\u00a0Un a\u00f1o para recordar<\/em><\/a><\/strong>, a scripted series that aired on Telefe in Argentina, with plans to adapt the show for the American market.\u00a0GMA Worldwide licensed a pair of scripted formats<\/a><\/strong>\u2014the hit Filipino dramas\u00a0The Other Mrs. Real<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0My Destiny<\/em>\u2014to receive Mexican treatments. The Nippon TV drama\u00a0Mother<\/em>\u00a0was sold into the Turkish market<\/a><\/strong>. Straddling the lines of scripted and non-, the fly-on-the-wall-style crime procedural\u00a0Suspects<\/em>\u00a0clinched its first global commission<\/a><\/strong>, with FremantleMedia tying up with the German network RTL for a local version.<\/p>\n

FremantleMedia was also promoting its first Chinese format at the market<\/a><\/strong>:\u00a0Familiar Taste<\/em>, co-developed by Zhejiang Satellite and Purity Media. Co-development has become quite popular in the formats market these days, and MIPCOM saw some new alliances formed. For example,\u00a0NBCUniversal International Formats and MBC Korea are planning to co-develop<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and produce original formats for Korean and international audiences. Armoza Formats followed up its recent co-development pacts with Canada\u2019s QMI Content and China\u2019s Sohu by entering into a new\u00a0partnership with FILM.UA Group<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0for virtual- and augmented-reality projects.<\/p>\n

Armoza\u2019s other agreements secured at the market demonstrate that there\u2019s still plenty of appetite out there for entertainment formats, as it notched up\u00a0sales for its game show\u00a0Who\u2019s Asking?<\/em><\/a><\/strong>\u00a0across CEE countries,\u00a0licensed the docureality series\u00a0Marry Me Now<\/em><\/a><\/strong>\u00a0for a British production and placed its new\u00a0modeling competition\u00a0Curvy Supermodel\u00a0<\/em>in Poland<\/a><\/strong>. Indeed, competition formats showed no signs of waning in popularity, despite moans of markets past that the genre has seen much saturation. Keshet International saw its\u00a0singing-based reality format\u00a0Rising Star\u00a0<\/em>get picked up<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0by the Hindi general-entertainment channel Colors. Talpa\u2019s megahit singing-based format\u00a0The Voice<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0continued to enter new markets<\/strong><\/a>, scoring a deal for a Singapore\/Malaysia version. Talpa also used MIPCOM as an opportunity to launch its latest talent competition:\u00a0The Next Boy\/Girl Band<\/em>, which was snapped up in Vietnam<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Outside of the talent-competition arena,\u00a0Dori Media Group sold the reality format\u00a0Power Couple<\/em><\/a><\/strong>\u00a0to RTL Croatia, while\u00a0WDR mediagroup\u2019s speed-dating show\u00a0Autumn Tingles<\/em>\u00a0is getting adapted<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0in Finland. Social experiments, which were all the talk at MIPTV, saw some notable successes this market. Red Arrow International, which is already home to the hit social-experiment format\u00a0Married at First Sight\u00a0<\/em>as well as\u00a0Kiss Bang Love<\/em>, secured two deals for its latest title in the genre, with\u00a0Look Me in the Eye\u00a0<\/em>commissioned in France and Australia<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

While there was no one particular groundbreaking new format that dominated MIPCOM with buzz, the sentiment surrounding innovation in the segment seemed generally upbeat.\u00a0Zee Entertainment Enterprises unveiled its new \u201cFormat Factory,\u201d<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0an incubator meant to develop several new formats for the international marketplace.\u00a0<\/strong>TV Formats\u00a0<\/em>will be keeping a close eye on all the latest format developments to see which hotbed might bring forth the next big global hit.<\/p>\n
