CANNES: The comedy Modern Family<\/em> has been a resounding success in the U.S., and the format for the show is offered by Twentieth Century Fox Television Distribution.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are very proud of the localized success of Modern Family<\/em> produced in Europe, the Middle East and Latin America and the cultural adaptations for each of the local productions,\u201d says Dorothy Crompton, the company\u2019s VP of format licensing. \u201cModern Family<\/em> is a long-running series that brings repeat viewers and high ratings to global broadcasters.\u201d<\/p>\n In the drama genre, a second season of 24<\/em> was done in India with Bollywood and international star Anil Kapoor as the lead actor. The local version has also sold to international broadcasters. Sons of Anarchy<\/em>, meanwhile, is getting its first localized treatment, with an adaptation in Russia.<\/p>\n \u201cTaking from the success of our U.S. series\u2019 performances globally, we believe our comedies and dramas have a large reach targeting local audiences around the world,\u201d Crompton says.<\/p>\n Focusing on scripted, Prison Break<\/em> is back with a new event series that features original stars such as Wentworth Miller, Dominic Purcell and Sarah Wayne Callies. In the all-new event series, clues surface that suggest a previously thought-to-be-dead Michael Scofield may be alive.<\/p>\n Twentieth Century Fox Television Distribution is also offering the new police drama APB<\/em>. The show, which features a high-tech twist, comes from executive producer\/director Len Wiseman (Lucifer<\/em>, Sleepy Hollow<\/em>) and executive producers and writers Matt Nix (Burn Notice<\/em>) and Trey Callaway (The Messengers<\/em>). The single-camera comedy The Mick<\/em>, meanwhile, centers on Mackenzie, a.k.a. Mickey, played by Kaitlin Olson (It\u2019s Always Sunny in Philadelphia<\/em>). Mickey is an unapologetic degenerate, who suddenly finds herself stuck in an affluent town raising her spoiled niece and nephews.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CANNES: The comedy Modern Family has been a resounding success in the U.S., and the format for the show is offered by Twentieth Century Fox Television Distribution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[761],"class_list":["post-7819","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-twentieth-century-fox-television-distribution"],"yoast_head":"\n
