The craze for crimes series, Conference |
| |
Hosted by Yuliya Sobakar, Mediametrie - Eurodata TV Worldwide, France |
| |
While currently the main trend in scripted formats appears to be family comedies, producers and broadcasters continue to put their trust in crime series. Even if all over the world, long-running crime formats still remain strong ratings boosters in several countries 10 or 20 years after their creation, fortunately new productions remain creative and appeal to a wide audience. Let's remember for example the recent successes of "White Collar" in the USA, of "Braquo" in France, of "NCIS: Los Angeles" and "The Mentalist" everywhere they have been broadcast! |
| |
The conference will present an overview of the latest successful crime formats in video, as well as an insight of their performances in the key countries. |
