Granada International Acquires Four Factual Shows

Granada International has acquired worldwide distribution rights to four brand new shows from award-winning factual production unit Original Productions LLC.
Subjects range from a fascinating glimpse of the underground world of fighting clubs, to an unconventional tour company that goes in search of the best-ever tornado, to the ultimate garden makeover show and the heartbreak and loss of families of missing children. Each one of the new shows will be launched to international buyers next month in Cannes.
Emmanuelle Namiech, Director of Acquisitions and Co-Productions said: “We are delighted to continue our relationship with Original Productions. An independent company that always finds the most original aspects of our world today and captures them in the most creative and entertaining way for TV viewers.”
'Twister Sisters' (6 x 60’ minutes) is a fascinating series that follows the eccentric pair as they head out on the road for their annual pilgrimage across the Great Plains, in search of the biggest and most destructive twisters on earth.
'Backyard Nation' (4 x 60 minutes) is the ultimate backyard makeover show that delivers dream gardens to people who cannot or will not do it themselves.
'Our Lives: Dog Brothers' (1 x 60 minutes) is a fascinating exploration of underground fight clubs.
'Our Lives: Disappeared' (1 x 60 minutes) is a gripping factual crime show that reveals the forgotten true stories of missing children and their families.
