Comedy Central Africa secures Deal With It U.S.

April 28, 2015 by TVA Editor

Keshet International (KI), the global distribution arm of Keshet Media Group, has sold seasons one and two (28 x 30′) of its finished U.S. hidden camera show, Deal With It to Viacom International Media Networks’ Comedy Central Africa (which reaches more than 50 territories in sub-Saharan Africa).

Following an earlier sale to Comedy Central UK which is already airing the laugh-out-loud series, and an extended second season on TBS, Deal With It has proved itself a sound buy for broadcasters looking for solid English language comedy content that travels effectively.

Evert van der Veer, Head of Comedy Central, Africa, said, “We are delighted to add this fun new celebrity spin to the classic hidden camera show format to our portfolio in sub Saharan Africa.”

Keren Shahar, MD Distribution at Keshet International, said, “Deal With It U.S. globally recognisable celebrity cast and universal humour make it an extremely versatile and reliable property.”

Deal With It U.S. has also sold to Mediacorp Singapore’s Channel 5, Multishow in Brazil and CMT in Canada.

Can you obey the secret control room while everyone around you thinks you’ve lost your mind? Can you Deal With It? Hosted by Theo Von (Primetime in No Time, Last Comic Standing, Road Rules), and executive produced by Howie Mandel (America’s Got Talent, Deal or No Deal, Mobbed), Deal With It is a hidden camera prank show with the ultimate twist. Each week, different guest celebrities and comedians are in on the fun, feeding absurd, hilarious pranks to the contestants. Among the guest stars of season one are executive producer Howie Mandel, along with Joan and Melissa Rivers, Adam Carolla, Bobby Lee and Josh Gad. Season two sees Nick Cannon (America’s Got Talent), Kelly Osbourne, Bob Saget, Tom Green, Orlando Jones and Kendall & Kylie Jenner (among others) exploring just how far their contestants will go, before they give up and yell − “I Can’t Deal With It!”.
