MIPCOM 2011's Most Buzzed-About Projects
6:43 PM PDT 10/5/2011 by Scott McKim
Cannes' annual television confab seems to have more confidence and flair this year from the sheer quantity of high-end drama vying for slots on primetime TV. After years where formats and gameshows were a broadcaster’s designated safe choice, the hour-long drama is truly back. Whether it is the US/UK coproduction model that has given birth to the likes the HBO/BBC period drama "Parade's End," being launched at this year's market, or "Hell on Wheels," produced by Endemol USA, eOne and Nomadic Pictures for AMC, the hour-long drama has made a return courtesy of a range of new financing options on the table.
