Now on PBS heading to MIPCOM

Now on PBS, a WNET production, will be presented at the prestigious MIPCOM International Film and Program Market for Television, Video, Cable and Satellite in October in Cannes, France. It's one of the world's biggest entertainment trade events. "This series has been on the air for seven years in the U.S., but this will be the first time that it has ever been introduced to the international market," said Marielle Zuccarelli, senior veep of international sales for distributor GRB Entertainment. It's good news for the show, which earlier this year told its staff to take eight weeks of unpaid leave to offset a $1 million budget shortfall (Current, March 30).
