ITV America also makes the likes ofSnowpiercer, Hells KitchenandQueer Eyein the States.
We have more success exporting outside the U.S. because of this focus, he added.
Its hard to be in the one-off business, he said.
Its hard to create a sustainable business out of singular docs that dont come back.
Without volume what does the game look like?
In the short term, George said he anticipates global commissioning to remain sluggish.
It will be very slow next year, he added.
They dont need to rush to make commissions or rush to get into production.
As Netflixs rivals find that consistency, he predicted commissioning will level out.
How do we create more ideas in those worlds and then translate them to linear?, he queried.
I think maybe we should invest more in the digital side, creating ownership positions for ourselves.
If we are not part of it then we will be left in the dust.
