Formats

Our established formats continue to sell internationally:

EXTREME DATE – “Journey to the limits of a relationship”

Extreme Date is our emotional reality show about big issues in relationships and life. For 5 days and nights, in the Arctic wilderness beyond civilization, a couple strives to survive together and work out the problems in their relationship.

STAR ACT – “Everyone wants to be a star”

Star Act gives everyone the chance to be the star of their dreams. Each episode turns ordinary people into their favorite actor, singer or entertainer by inserting them in the actual footage of famous movies, music videos or TV shows.

We’re also coming out with a number of new formats, including:

ASPHALT JUNGLE – “Locate your mate in the urban jungle”

Asphalt Jungle is a delicious mix of dating and adventure shows, where men and women chase each other through the city in a game that makes dating adventurous and adventure romantic. Winning isn’t the only issue – it’s also about the fun you have on the way.

Cross media and joint development

In addition, we have expertise in cross-media formats, and have worked with Action Time on developing cross-media elements for their formats. This gives us unique expertise in cutting-edge cross media and joint development work.
