The Love Island effect at Unscripted
A case study on global hit Love Island at C21’s Unscripted Entertainment Forum will examine how the show was supercharged into a TV phenomenon, and how it is being repurposed for global roll-out.
The session will aim to uncover how to adapt a hit show and create high-impact TV that reaches a new audience.
Love Island played over the summer on ITV2 in the UK and the network said the dating show was its most successful format ever among 16-34s. The fourth season will air in 2018.
With a reversion currently airing in Germany and several discussions already underway with other territories this session will uncover the secrets of its success.
