The Gibson Group is set for another busy year following NZ on Air's pre-Christmas funding announcement.
TV One's flagship arts show Frontseat , now in its fifth season will return in March, along with ever popular satirical comedy Facelift, which is set to air later in the year.
A second series of Here to Stay has been commissioned by TVNZ. The first series will screen on TV One shortly as part of their new season launch. Here to Stay is a dynamic documentary series that journeys back into our colonial settler past through the eyes of different migrant groups that came to set up a new life in New Zealand.The show is strongly focussed on the unique psyche of NZ - the humour, determination and she’ll be right attitude that have made us proud to be Kiwi.
A 13 part Children's drama series for TV2, Time Hackers, has also been given the go ahead. Intended for 8 - 11 year olds, the show is fast-paced, light-hearted & anarchic, featuring a fun set of characters on a time travelling mission to fix viruses that have been planted into the very fabric of time.
