Independent distributor All3media International signed a high-volume drama deal in Latin America, as AMC Networks’ streaming service Acorn TV acquired more than 180 hours of content for its streaming service in the region.

Acorn TV has secured SVOD rights in Latin America to a host of new seasons from hit detective drama brands. This includes the first five seasons of the UK’s leading drama export “Midsomer Murders” (Bentley Productions), seasons two and three of entertaining murder mystery “Agatha Raisin” (a Free@Last and Company Pictures Production for Acorn TV) and five seasons of South Pacific Pictures’ atmospheric whodunit “The Brokenwood Mysteries”.

Also heading to Acorn TV from All3media International’s detective drama slate are three seasons of “Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries,” the first season of “Ms Fisher’s Modern Murder Mysteries,” and new feature film “Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears,” all from Every Cloud Productions, along with season one of Bunya Productions’ “Mystery Road”. Further titles featured in the deal are two six-part series from Rollem Productions – “Girlfriends” and “Love, Lies and Records”.

Acorn TV is available in several countries in Latin America via Acorn.tv and Roku streaming devices, and continues to be a valued distribution and co-production partner for All3media International.

“Midsomer Murders” also featured in another new deal in Latin America, as Television Nacionale de Uruguay signed series 16 - 20, becoming the first free TV network in the country to air the drama.
