The company is adding three more shows to its list of credits: a crime series and a factual series for Seven Network, and a new vet series that will be a co-production with an international broadcaster.<\/p>\n<p>Greenlights for 2023 include returning seasons of some of its most popular titles, such as <em>Paramedics<\/em>, <em>Emergency<\/em>, <em>Bondi Vet<\/em> and <em>Space Invaders<\/em>, as well as a recommission for one of its newest series, First on Scene.<\/p>\n<p>In the past two decades, WTFN has developed and produced 76 original programs for networks in Australia and abroad. Of those 76 shows, 18 have run for three series or more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s a fact WTFN is very proud of,\u201d said WTFN CEO Daryl Talbot. \u201cReturnable series are the lifeblood of independent production companies. Getting a show commissioned is always challenging, but the bigger challenge is producing a quality program that connects with viewers, performs for the network, and returns year after year. <em>Bondi Vet<\/em> is in its twelfth series, and we have two other shows that have run for 8 and 11 series, respectively. Returning series are a major KPI for this business.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bondi Vet\u00a0producer WTFN Group, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary, is producing more than 80 episodes of factual programming this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":19742,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[7624,7625],"class_list":["post-19741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-bondi-vet","tag-wtfn-group","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
