Lina Prestwood, Director of Content, introduces you to Open Season, Current's social TV experiment where we're asking our viewers to help us plan what’s going to be on the channel next year.
We've chosen four shows that we think have the potential to become entertaining series for Current TV. As always with Current, they’re being made by emerging directors, new production companies and our in-house production unit.
Right now they’re at the beginning stages of producing four pilot episodes and very soon you’ll be able to watch them and tell us exactly what you think of them right here on current.com, Twitter and Facebook.
Everything you say will be taken into account and in early November, together we – that’s you and us – will making the decision which will become series on Current TV next year. We want your feedback at every stage!
