The acquisition follows the format’s recent launch on SBS6 in the Netherlands. It’s the format’s fourth territory in France. The first episode, produced by Talpa Entertainment Productions and distributed by Talpa Concepts, is set to air this summer.
Even before the current season has ended, SBS6 has already recommissioned the marble racing show “Marble Mania,” which scored an average market share of 24.5% in the 18-44 target group, and 22.3% in the 25-59 target group during its first season.
Only three weeks after its initial launch on SBS6 in the Netherlands, John de Mol’s Talpa closed a deal with VTM for a local production of the successful format.
