Range Of Deals And Options For Zodiak Television World

Zodiak Television World heads to DISCOP with a range of deals and options signed for new formats launched at MIP-TV as well as a variety of new sales from its format library, it has been announced by President, Heather Stevenson.
'Pin Code', the big new game show from Zodiak owned Broadcasters has been optioned in five territories including US and Spain. Reversing the usual run of play, contestants begin the show with money deposited into their bank account – all they have to do is unlock their pin code to get the cash. But nothing is as simple as it seems, as they find that they may have to make sacrifices to break the code. Pin Code is due to air in Finland in Spring 2008.
Deals have been signed in the US, Spain, Romania and Benelux for reality format Supernerds, which takes ten men with no dating experience, no strength and no courage between them, and tries to make them into real men. Living, working and competing together they will make one of the toughest journeys an individual, and a group, can make. Zodiak Television World also arrives at DISCOP with a strong entertainment slate, including lifestyle programmes such as mother daughter makeover show Like Mother Like Daughter, recently picked up by SBS Belgium; the comedy game show Sing A Song commissioned for nearly 50 episodes by Digiturk Turkey and the 'high octane' prime time entertainment series Stars On Stage, a hit on First Channel Russia, Inter-TV in Ukraine and ONT in Belarus.
