Thai net adds Oz kids’ content

Thai PBS has picked up Hoot Hoot Go! from ABC Commercial

A broadcaster in Thailand has acquired a package of children’s programming from the distribution arm of Australian public broadcaster ABC.

Thai PBS will air the series Hoot Hoot Go! (26×5′), Bobbie the Bear (10×3′), Splashdance (26×4′) and season six of Let’s Get Inventin’ (10×22′) following the deal with ABC Commercial.

The Thai channel has also added two factual series for adults: Life in Ruins (7×57′) and Beneath New Zealand (3×43′).

The sale comes ahead of ABC Commercial’s attendance at Asia Television Forum next week, where it will showcase a drama, comedy, natural history, children’s and factual series.
