Cabin Fever increases for Foxtel, Blue Ant

MIPDOC: Australia’s Foxtel and Canada’s Blue Ant Media have acquired the second season of a reality series that hunts out and restores old cabins and barns.

Log Cabin Fever is being shopped here in Cannes by Australian distributor Looking Glass International, with the second season available to pre-buy.

Produced by 1895 Films and originally commissioned by factual giant Discovery for its Great American Country channel, the series follows Charlie Norman and his crew of craftsmen deep into the hills of Appalachia looking for long lost cabins and barns to save.

The 13×60’ second run has also been pre-bought by Viasat in CEE and Scandinavia and Nat Geo People in MENA and SEA.
