UNSCRIPTED TV (ENTERTAINMENT)

ABC Entertainment makes shows that are funny, compelling and attention-grabbing.

The Entertainment department encompasses a number of genres including: Panel shows, quiz or game shows, competition reality, comedy, satire, lifestyle and interview. Ideas can be studio, field-based or a hybrid of both. We work with the best of established and upcoming Australian talent.

There is no specific number of episodes we’re looking for, other than the right number for that particular project, but we are always asking - how does the idea fit in the current entertainment slate? Will our audiences watch this on ABC iview? Is it returnable? Could this become an ABC brand and a great vehicle for outstanding entertainment talent?
