Fox buys slice of Kiwi reality

US cable network giant, Fox Reality, has purchased the rights to a three NZ reality TV shows; Treasure Island, Treasure Island Extreme, and The Bounty Hunters. “These shows are really strong examples of compelling reality television,” says Fox Reality COO David Lyle. “Our audience responds to human dramas in Reality Television whether they take place with Americans in a Honduran resort, British on the Costa Del Sol or even, we hope, New Zealanders racing around a Pacific Island.” All three shows were produced by Touchdown New Zealand.
