The debut of the hit show Most Wanted on Videoland has been a resounding success and is now set to expand internationally. The immersive reality escape and chase game will soon premiere on streaming platform Joyn in Germany, marking a significant milestone in its global journey. In the Netherlands, Videoland has just confirmed a second season, following the strong performance of the first, which captivated audiences and held an impressive spot in the Videoland Top 10 for seven consecutive weeks. Wouter van der Pauw, creative founder at Signal.Stream, points to a key factor in its success, “Most Wanted was designed as a content event. Viewers aren’t just watching the chase, they’re part of it through social media, live interaction and celebrity engagement. That sense of urgency made the show truly stand out.”
He explains, “The key was a post-production process built for speed without compromising quality. By releasing the show just days after the finale, we captured peak momentum and created maximum social buzz. For a streaming generation overwhelmed by choice, timing is everything. As co-creators, Signal.Stream and Talpa Studios approach content discovery not as an afterthought but as a strategic foundation from day one. Backed by Talpa Studios’ global reach and creative legacy, we design formats that don’t just sit on a platform, they actively find and engage their audience.”
Sebastian van Barneveld, Director Global Distribution at Talpa Studios commented, “Most Wanted has proven to be a true streaming hit, driving both high subscription rates and strong viewership. The expansion to Germany is a testament to the format’s universal appeal and a significant milestone in its international journey.”
