  • Le Groupe M6 a Choisi Metro Goldwyn Mayer Et Mark Burnett Pour Signer Un Accord D'exploitation Du Format « Audition Secrète
    Le Groupe M6 a choisi Metro Goldwyn Mayer et Mark Burnett pour signer un accord d’exploitation du format « Audition Secrète », produit par Studio 89 d’après le format « Secret Audition » détenu par Studio 89, Explay Music et La Casa. Cet accord intervient pour une exploitation dans 12 territoires : Les Etats-Unis, le Canada, l’Australie, UK, Pays-Bas, Espagne, Italie, Norvège, Suède, Finlande, Danemark et Inde. Diffusé sur la chaîne M6 à partir du 24 juillet, « Audition Secrète » (Secret Audition) est un divertissement inédit qui permet de découvrir de nouveaux talents en plaçant les proches au cœur du dispositif. Le lancement de l’émission a rencontré un vif succès auprès des téléspectateurs, permettant à M6 de se classer leader auprès des moins de 50 ans et en particulier sur la cible commerciale (25% auprès des FRDA-50). Cet accord positionne Studio 89, l’unité des flux internes du Groupe M6, comme un nouvel acteur sur le marché de la vente de formats. Son programme « Chasseurs d’Appart » (Flat Hunters), a déjà été adapté dans 5 territoires. Le concept d'« Audition Secrète » Des producteurs de maison de disque sont persuadés que de nombreux chanteurs anonymes n'ont pas osé se dévoiler : soit parce qu'ils ont peur, soit parce que la vie les a poussés à faire d'autres choix, ou encore parce qu'ils n'imaginent pas avoir suffisamment de talent. Puisque ces talents ne veulent pas sortir de l'ombre, des producteurs reconnus ont imaginé un stratagème inédit pour les propulser dans la lumière. Grâce à la complicité de leurs proches, ces talents vont se retrouver sur scène sans le savoir ! L'effet de surprise passé, ils auront alors la possibilité, s'ils le souhaitent, de montrer à tous ce talent de chanteur qu'ils gardaient caché jusque-là.

  • LGBTQ Episodic Television Study Guide
    Archive Study Guide: LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL AND TRANSGENDER TELEVISION: SITCOMS AND EPISODIC DRAMAS ARCHIVE STUDY GUIDE The representation of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) communities on television is marked by a history of stereotypes and inexplicable invisibility. By the 1970s, gay media-watch groups communicated their concerns to the television industry and a sense of cooperation began to emerge between the LG BT community and broadcasters. During the 1980s, the AIDS crisis and resulting prejudices ushered in a new era of problematic and offensive portrayals. In the late 1990s, Ellen Degeneres' landmark coming out, (both in real- life, and through the character she portrayed in her sitcom), generated much controversy and discussion, ultimately paving the way for well -developed gay characters in prominent primetime TV roles. Despite such advances, stereotypes continue to resurface and perpetuate, and the full diversity of the LGBT community is more often than not underrepresented in the mass media.

  • Mark Burnett Named President of MGM Television, Digital Group
    Mark Burnett Named President of MGM Television, Digital Group 12.14.2015 Mark Burnett-executive producer of such hit shows as NBC's The Voice, CBS' Survivor and ABC's Shark Tank-has been named president of MGM Television and Digital Group, the company said Monday. He'll start his new job early next year and has a five-year contract. Burnett's appointment comes as part of an overall acquisition of United Artists Media Group, an entity that's jointly held by Hearst, Burnett and his wife, Roma Downey. Some 15 months ago, MGM took a 55% stake in the production company owned by Hearst, Burnett and Downey, and at that time revived the United Artists banner with Burnett serving as CEO. Downey will remain president of the faith and family unit, LightWorkers Media. Burnett and Downey together have produced such TV miniseries as History's The Bible and NBC's follow-up, The Bible AD. To acquire United Artists, MGM bought the remaining 45 percent stake in the company. Burnett and Downey will exchange their joint 23 percent interest in UAMG for 1.34 million shares of MGM stock, valued at $90 per share. Hearst will receive $113.5 million for its 22 percent interest in UAMG. Hearst, Burnett, Downey and MGM will separately go ahead with a planned over-the-top channel, reports The Hollywood Reporter. Downey will serve as chief content officer of that operation, reports Variety. Roma Khanna, who had headed the division, is departing. Burnett, who's used to being an independent producer in charge of his own company, will report directly to Gary Barber, chairman and CEO of MGM.
