Channel 4 surveillence format Hunted is being remade in France after local broadcaster Rmc Découverte struck a deal with Endemol Shine. The superindie’s Endemol Shine France will produce 12-part series Escape: 21 Jours pour Disparaitre to air later this year.

The contestants are pursued by a team of highly skilled, professional investigators, including detectives, psychologists, and surveillance experts. The show was originally produced by Shine TV for the British broadcaster. Lisa Perrin, Endemol Shine Group’s CEO of Creative Networks says, “Since its UK launch in 2015 Hunted has become one of our most widely travelled and creatively fresh formats with a concept that has remained at the heart of the global zeitgeist, we can’t...

This month, Helen Woodward Animal Center will once again unite with animal welfare proponents and organizations worldwide for the 5th Annual Remember Me Thursday.
Honored on the fourth Thursday of September, the campaign asks pet lovers and animal rescue groups to create an unstoppable, integrated voice advocating for homeless pets to live in forever homes, not die waiting for them.

Discovery Communications is going to the dogs, via DogTV that is. The company has made an investment in two-year-old DogTV, which bills itself as the first television network created just for canines. The companies have also formed a strategic partnership to help accelerate DogTV’s growth and allow for collaboration with Animal Planet. DogTV is a 24-hour network that effectively helps babysit stay-at-home pooches with programming specifically designed for their eyes and ears. Content is split into three categories — relaxation, stimulation and exposure — to help provide balance for their daily routines. Dr. Nicholas Dodman, program director of the Animal Behavior Clinic at Tufts University, is DogTV’s chief scientist. Prior to DogTV’s launch in 2012, he performed a study monitoring dogs’ behavior in their own homes which captured viewing time and preferences, leading to the development of DogTV’s programming. Additional pet experts include Victoria Stilwell, of Animal Planet’s...

New York (Reuters) - Lonely, bored dogs left at home all day while their owners are at work could soon be getting some digital company - a TV channel with programming just for pooches.
Dogtv, a 24/7 channel designed specifically for man's best friend, will air nationally next month on the U.S. satellite operator DirecTV, with hopes of attracting dogs in some of the 46 million U.S. households that have at least one.
"It is the first and only television channel that is dedicated to our four-legged friends and not to their parents," Gilad Neumann, the chief executive of the Tel Aviv-based company, said in an interview.
The channel won't be showing the canine equivalent of "Modern Family," "Mad Men" or "Downton Abbey" but will feature programs with music, visuals, animation and the occasional human that are designed to relax, stimulate and ease the loneliness of home-alone pets.

Los Angeles — Summer television used to mean reruns. This year it's gone to the dogs.
Several new shows star dogs and their owners in need of help. CBS has the lone network show in "Dogs in the City," starring comic, dog trainer and businessman Justin Silver. It's joined by documentaries on PBS and HBO and a series in the works for the Disney Channel, among others.
Each Wednesday at 8 p.m., beginning May 30, Silver will try to help hound and human tackle unsettling problems like joint custody after divorce or dealing with significant others who just moved in.
Is man or mutt usually to blame for problems? It's 50-50, he said, but "a dog's behavior is shaped by the people in its life."
Silver says he won't be the one solving problems, even though he jokes that he speaks dog. Instead he will provide techniques and experiences so owners can fix their own problems.

A few years ago, in a quandary about what to give the Love Interest for his birthday, I happened upon the best gift ever: A week at Camp Gone To The Dogs. Now you might say, what the hell is that? And I might say you are definitely not a dog person.
But if you are a dog person, have I got a show for you. It's like dog camp but done as a reality show, "Greatest American Dog."
Twelve people and their dogs live together in a place called the "Canine Academy," which is a giant mansion equipped with top-of-the-line doggy everything.
