Popular American television
comedy-drama-mystery series,
Desperate Housewives is to get an
African remake.
According to Nigerian network
EbonyLife, they have joined forces
with Disney to give the award
winning show an African adaptation.
The show is reportedly still in the
development stages and is
scheduled for a 2014 debut on the
channel which reaches 44 countries
on the African continent.
According to ebonylifetv.com, the
show will feature a pan-African cast
and will be set in Lagos, Nigeria,
where it will also be shot.
"We are going to give the stories an
African flavor. We will localize it,
because there’s nothing that the
West has that Africa doesn’t have:
we love, we fight, we kiss, we make
up. We like all the good things in
life. There’s good and there’s evil
globally,” Mo Abudu, CEO and
Executive Chairman of EbonyLife TV
was quoted saying.
The original US show, which starred
big names such as Teri Hatcher,
Felicity Huffman, Marcia Cross and
Eva Longoria aired for 8 seasons
between 2004 and 2012 and
managed to win numerous industry
awards.
The Disney Desperate Housewives
remakes have reportedly proved very
popular in countries like Turkey,
Colombia, and Brazil and Nigeria
hopes to follow suit.
