WELCOME Welcome our latest Formats catalog. New entertainment, reality and quiz shows from leading production companies headline Red Arrow Studios International’s latest formats line-up, alongside returning hits that continue to win new commissions around the world. The primetime family entertainment format ‘Who Is The Phantom?’, produced by Constantin Television for ProSieben (Germany), is a new take on the popular ‘masked celebrity’ genre, in which three celebrity detectives have to solve riddles and crack visual clues to guess the identity of the Phantom – a famous face hidden behind a cloak and a mask. It’s a fun, challenging and visually interesting way of revealing intimate secrets about celebrities. Also available is ‘Couple Wars’, originally produced by Deutsche ProducktionsUnion for SAT.1 (Germany), in which competing couples undertake very personal challenges to test just how much they know about each other, in order to win a cash prize. Further highlights include ‘#Offlineinthewild’ – a new fish-out-of-water format originally produced by Redseven Entertainment for Joyn (Germany) in which six social media stars are stripped of their cell phones and gadgets before venturing deep into the forest for a wild week of back-tobasics living, survival skills, and campsite challenges. It will appeal to a younger demo who just cannot contemplate life without a mobile phone or social media!

Additionally, we will also present two quirky and entertaining new quiz shows: ‘Quizness’, originally produced by CPL Productions for Channel 4 (UK), in which the more answers the contestants know, the sillier they have to look to prove it. And ‘The Opposite Show’, originally produced by Leonine for SAT.1 (Germany), where nothing is as expected: right is left, yes is no, loud is quiet, and every win is a loss. Our impressive roster of returning formats include the radical home improvement format ‘Buying Blind’, which has recently added commissions in France and Germany to its roster of local adaptations; extraordinary social experiment format ‘The Restaurant That Makes Mistakes’ – in which a group of people living with dementia are tasked with helping run a restaurant led by a successful chef, and ‘Block Out’, the addictive and flexible gameshow format which continues to be produced in key territories for a variety of timeslots and demos. We hope you enjoy our new line-up and look forward to catching up with you soon

Best wishes, Tim Gerhartz President & Managing Director, Red Arrow Studios International

#OFFLINEINTHEWILD Social media stars battle it out to survive offline and off the grid in this competitive digital detox format

Six social media stars are stripped of their cell phones and gadgets before venturing deep into the forest for a wild week of back-tobasics living, survival skills, and campsite challenges. Dressed as scouts, the influencers must follow strict rules, respect nature, and prove themselves in daily solo and team-based tasks – anything from starting a fire to building a stretcher and carrying it over a course – to win coveted badges from the show’s host. The race is on to collect as many badges as possible. Eliminations begin in episode three, with the holder of the fewest badges leaving first. By the final episode, only three scouts are left. Nature knowledge and new-found camp skills are put to the test, whittling three stars down to two. The last two then face three physical challenges to see who emerges the winner. A fun, ‘fish-out-of-water’ format that highlights our reliance on smartphones – and what can be achieved without them.

RENOVATE DON'T RELOCATE How redesigning your home can transform your life Smart technology and life-sized floor plans make for a TV makeover first Packed with stunning visuals and transformation tips Season One in the UK beat its benchmark share by 20% Commissioned for a third season This groundbreaking new format mixes smart technology, design and engaging stories to create a home makeover show that not only transforms homes, but the way they are used. In each episode, an expert host – in the UK version, property developer Sarah Beeny – comes to the aid of homeowners living in a property that no longer works for them. From newlyweds and new parents, to people who work from home, the expert shows how a little design know-how can improve their lifestyle, save them money and prevent them having to move home. Special cameras are installed to monitor how people really use their home and the data collected helps create a life-size floor plan that highlights problem areas and brings the expert’s design, layout and décor ideas to life. The host then tracks the renovation over the following months, and a final reveal of the completed project proves that, if you re-think and re-design the space you have, it is better – and cheaper – to renovate, not relocate!

MEAT THE FAMILY Topical new social experiment that explores what happens when a family’s dinner comes to stay A life-changing, emotional experiment An accessible overview of topical debates around eating meat and animal welfare, supported by the latest scientific findings Licensed to territories including Germany, France, Denmark and the Netherlands How much do we really know about the animals we put on our plates? Why would we eat a lamb, but not a dog? This noisy, new social experiment sees four meat-eating families welcome the animal they most frequently serve for dinner into their homes: from chicken and sheep, to pigs and even cows! They treat the new arrival like a beloved pet – taking it for walks and playing with it – in a bid to understand its intellectual and emotional capacity, and to see if living with it makes it less palatable to eat! During the experiment, the families travel around their own country and abroad to learn about animal welfare; farming and production; food processing; and the impact eating animals has on the environment and our health. At the end of three weeks, they are forced to make one of the toughest decisions of their lives: go vegetarian forever and send the animal to a sanctuary, or remain meat eaters and kill their new best friend.

STATE OF HATE Can bitter rivals be reconciled in this innovative social experiment? Premiere in Denmark (Kanal 5) increased channel’s year-to-date primetime share by over 40% From the creators of hit social experiment series ‘Married at First Sight’ Nationalists vs. immigrants. Animal rights activists vs. animal hunters. Homosexuals vs. homophobes. Can groups divided by hate ever reconcile their differences? ‘State of Hate’ puts this to the test. At a remote outdoor camp, two opposing groups go up against each other in a series of challenges to win money: in some they oppose each other, in others, they need to work together. These battles provoke confrontation, and test mental and physical strength, plus teamworking skills. Throughout the experiment, the competitors are watched by psychologists who provide commentary on the groups’ internal relationships and developments. In the final phase, the groups are interviewed to see if they have changed their minds about their opponents. But there’s also a last, nail-biting offer: share an increased cash prize with the other team or keep it for themselves. Making that decision, without knowing if the other group will do the same, determines if the experiment has been a success.

WHO IS THE PHANTOM? Celebrities try to solve riddles and crack clues in this intriguing and mischievous new competition format In this fun, primetime primetime format, a team of three celebrities attempts to correctly guess the identity of the mystery Phantom – a famous face hidden behind a mask. The Phantom, working with the show’s host, has prepared eight clues providing hints to their identity. However, to fully receive each clue, the celebrity detectives first have to solve ingeniously presented riddles and quizzes. For example, the Phantom puts a suitcase in an X-ray machine on the stage and the celebrities have to guess its destination by the contents; or they watch a short video clip of a producer pitching a movie and must guess its title. The Phantom presents every clue with either an entertaining studio performance or with a short cinematic clip. If the celebrities correctly answer the preceding riddle, the host provides them with a clear statement about the clue. If they don't, they’ll need to rely on their own interpretation of what the clue means! As the clues build, the celebrity detectives – and the audience at home – can start to guess who might be behind the mask. Can they solve enough riddles and clues to correctly guess the Phantom before the final reveal? ENTERTAINMENT / GAMESHOW Produced by Constantin Television GmbH for ProSieben (Germany) More info

The comedians often don’t have a clue what they are talking about, which makes for entertaining stories and hilarious comedy moments as they come up with weird, unexpected and crazy answers. And for every question that can’t be answered, the questioner wins a cash prize. ‘Clueless Genius’ – the funniest improvised comedy on TV.
