| 15 March 2021 As it gears up for a key new season, producer/distributor Beyond Rights has revealed that it is introducing what it says is a wide range of fresh unscripted content from a variety of different genres leading to a total of more than 200 new hours into the international market.
The new programming encompasses a new kids’ series, and numerous returning seasons of popular and well-established programme brands. In addition to a raft of new titles it also features some new takes on popular shows.
“With fresh entertainment, engineering, crime, history, lifestyle and natural history content, this new slate continues to build on Beyond’s existing strengths in unscripted while also allowing us to add to our growing formats offer with Saved & Remade,” said Connie Hodson, head of partnerships and business development at Beyond Rights. “We are delighted to be bringing such a diverse range of expertly produced new programming to the international market and are proud to be working with so many new producer partners for the first time, including Red Sky Productions, Fulwell 73, Voltage TV, Breakout Productions, Pernel Media and Saffron Cherry TV.”
First up is Family Piggy Bank, a game show where family members go through three rounds of trivia in an attempt to “fill the family piggy bank.” The format uses CGI technology to create a shiny floor studio, virtual game play movements and a virtual audience.
The project is produced by Armoza Formats and Gamechanger’s Nimrod Harel and Yaron Yashinsky.
The producer/distributor is also prepping two formats co-developed with Something Special Korea — the first of which is Checklist for Love, a dating reality arc competition that finds 11 men and 10 women moving in together looking for their one true love.
