What changes in TV and technology have you seen over the course of your career, and what do these changes mean for viewers today? We make donations to arts organizations, and we just spend a lot of time with young artists in Brooklyn and the Bronx, and creating PSAs. We want to do something that profiles the people and organizations that are involved in that and really celebrate them. There are artists all over the United States. We also are looking at what's happening in North Dakota. It's not just the art we focus on in New York, Los Angeles, and major cities. It's all arts content all day, art across the heartland. One of the things we're doing for Arts Advocacy Day is we're taking a day and we're going commercial-free. We look at the arts and how viewers can interact and intersect with the arts on screen, but also in public.
How else does Ovation stand apart as a network in today’s competitive TV marketplace? We want diversity in terms of the stories. That's what looking for in documentaries, in shows. I want to hear other people's points of view. I don't want to live in a world that's just seeing my reflection. It's becoming a seamless world for him there. How there's a change, and the colonial nature of New Zealand is blending with the Māori people. He talked about the colonization of the Pacific. For example, Sam Neill talked about his trip to the Pacific. And the producers of the content have different points of view. You see different points of view in the actors. That begins to get you a bit of a diverse cast. Why is it important to the network to have strong female characters and diversity in its casts and storylines? He made this personal journey all across the Pacific following the path of Captain Cook, but discovers the cultures, the people and the art all along the way. He has great passion for the cultures of the Pacific. And if you look at The Pacific-it's about an artist, Sam Neill. We've got two powerful women at a transitional time in history when they are making themselves known. It has a foundation in the world of art, poetry. That's why we looked at Riviera, Versailles' replacement for Saturday nights. When the first season launched, there was so much pent up interest for the series. We're going back to that because it is a show all about discovery.īefore, we had Versailles, and that show always had an international conversation going on in social media. We've now gone back to the original title, Murdoch.
It was called The Artful Detective back then. We can look back a number of years and one of the first dramas we had was the Murdoch Mysteries. We are looking for art and culture, or something that has an attraction to art and culture. How do you come up with the concepts for these shows? What is most important to you when you are choosing these projects? Known for being an arts network, Ovation brings in over 300 new hours of artistic content a year, and as Woodward said it, they work year-round to “find the crème de la crème of art content.” At TCA, a roomful of media critics had the chance to hear from the casts of the network's spring lineup, including Frankie Drake Mysteries, Murdoch Mysteries, Riviera, and The Pacific: In the Wake of Captain Cook. During the cable programming portion, NCTA caught up with Ovation TV Executive Vice President of Programming and Production, Scott Woodward, to get a better understanding of how the network selects shows that strike a chord with audiences, and how Ovation differentiates itself when viewers have a limitless number of options. Today is the last day of the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour-a time when the country's top TV journalists come together in Los Angeles to hear from directors, producers and casts of the new and existing shows that await viewers every spring.
