CBS STUDIOS INTERNATIONAL ANNOUNCES LICENSING AGREEMENT WITH WARNER CHANNEL LATIN AMERICA FOR NEW COMEDY MAN WITH A PLAN
The new series, starring Golden Globe® Award winner Matt LeBlanc, will be available on the Warner Channel and will air this Fall season.
“We’re delighted to bring comedy legend Matt LeBlanc to Latin American audiences in MAN WITH A PLAN,” said Stephanie Pacheco, Vice President of Latin America for CBS Studios International. “This agreement brings more of CBS’s world-class programming to the region and builds on our terrific relationship with Turner.”
“We are very pleased to expand our excellent relationship with CBS Studios International to bring fresh, new content to our screens. MAN WITH A PLAN, with the unforgettable Matt LeBlanc, is the perfect fit for our network and superb content for our Latin American audience to enjoy,” said Vicky Zambrano, Vice President and Manager of Warner Channel Latin America.
MAN WITH A PLAN stars Matt LeBlanc in a comedy about a contractor who starts spending more time with his kids when his wife goes back to work and discovers the truth all parents eventually realize: their little angels are maniacs.
Adam feels fully equipped to take on more parenting responsibilities while his self-assured wife, Andi (Liza Synder), returns to the workforce after being a stay-at-home mom for 13 years. In the midst of it all, Adam’s older brother and business partner, Don (Kevin Nealon), enjoys giving him terrible advice about how to run his family. But, with Andi’s encouragement, the stern supervision of kindergarten teacher Mrs. Wannamaker (Diana Maria Riva) and advice from a couple of equally stressed parents, Marie (Jessica Chaffin) and Lowell (Matt Cook), Adam takes charge of his brood, lays down the law and discovers he’s going to “nail” this job.
Jeff and Jackie Filgo, Matt LeBlanc, Michael Rotenberg and Troy Zien will serve as executive producers and the series is produced by CBS Television Studios and distributed internationally by CBS Studios International.
