London – Endemol announced the launch of two new international production hubs following new deals for its latest global formats. XXS, which was launched at MIPCOM 2009, has been commissioned by Telefe in Argentina, Brazil’s TV Globo, Canal 13 in Chile, Star TV in Turkey and SIC in Portugal. Endemol is now launching a new international production hub for the show in Argentina where back to back filming of all local productions will take place. A similar hub in Argentina has also been launched for Endemol’s 101 Ways to Leave a Gameshow, which was recently commissioned for a prime time slot on BBC ONE in the UK with further deals expected to be announced soon. The international sets are being built on the back of the continued success of Wipeout, which is filmed on location in Argentina for broadcasters in 23 countries. Originally developed and piloted by Endemol Argentina’s creative team, XXS features families competing for a cash prize by taking on an epic obstacle course set in a giant house. And 101 Ways to Leave a Gameshow, which was developed by Endemol’s UK and USA creative teams, sees losing contestants ejected from the show…literally. All three formats will be among Endemol’s highlights at MIPTV in Cannes this April.
