Program Partners to Offer Exclusive Previews Online

Los Angeles, CA — April 16, 2007 — Program Partners announced the Internet premiere of new episodes of its hit procedural drama, Da Vinci’s Inquest, as the company launches a strategic business relationship with YouTube, the leader in online video, and the premier destination to watch and share original videos worldwide through a Web experience. Full-length, on-demand editions of the much-anticipated “City Hall” episodes of the award-winning series will be available in the U.S. first on YouTube’s Da Vinci’s Inquest Channel (http://www.youtube.com/davincisinquest) and then on Superstation WGN and in syndication. Today’s news marks the latest milestone in Program Partners’ expansive broadband initiative, which is designed to take advantage of new avenues for multi-platform distribution.

"Dominic Da Vinci is definitely expanding his horizons,” said Josh Raphaelson of Program Partners. “He moves in to the Mayor’s office and goes right on YouTube. Longtime fans and many new ones will be excited to find him there.”

“When Internet users search for video online, they go to YouTube,” said Dave Hutchinson, Senior Vice President of New Media for Program Partners. “Premiering new episodes of Da Vinci’s Inquest there shows how seriously we take this platform and its audience.”

Cleared in 98% of the country and airing on more than 200 station affiliates, including all major markets, Da Vinci’s Inquest continues to grow in popularity and deliver solid ratings during its second year of U.S. syndication.

Produced by Haddock Entertainment and Barna-Alper Productions, Da Vinci’s Inquest is an award-winning prime-time procedural drama in the mold of the CSI and Law and Order franchises and is one of the most honored series in the history of Canadian television. Dominic Da Vinci (Nicholas Campbell) is the controversial coroner who—with the help of a compelling ensemble cast of forensic investigators, pathologists and homicide detectives—“speaks for the dead to protect the living.”

Program Partners is marketing Da Vinci’s Inquest as an outgrowth of its overall distribution agreement with Thunderbird Films.
