2 EDITORIAL Video Online, a new driver for TV program consumption We see that the consumption of TV programs and video online is booming. Statistics have increased since the introduction of catchup and non-linear viewing. Not only does this impact the viewing time but non-linear viewing helps to boost program ratings too. These and other key facts were revealed at Series Mania held in Paris on the 20th April presented by Sahar Baghery, Head of global Research & Contents strategy at Eurodata TV Worldwide. Further to this, the 5th Edition of the Entertainment report reviews which shows continue to keep the lead worldwide and among the 52 channels studied in the report, entertainment programs are taking up a large amount of prime time. The way people watch television is continuing to change. In our One TV Year report it explains how TV behaviors, such as time-shifted viewing can average at 15minutes of TV viewing time per day. Surprisingly this increase is not exclusive to young adults but the entire audience measured. We are also now pleased to announce the arrival of our new One TV Year report online! This report gives an overview of the TV industry worldwide and facilitates the cross-country analysis process on a responsive, easy to use website. The One TV Year Report Online is now accessible on all devices with an analysis on more than 100 territories. As promised we are continuously developing the 4 screen measurement challenge to allow us to have audience details on the other screens with the same degree of precision that we now have for TV sets. Eurodata TV will be heading to Russia at the end of the month to share International content & TV trends at the World Content Market held in Moscow on 30 May-1 June.

88 countries around the world. This is a 3-minute decrease compared with 2014 but this is to be balanced by the fact that audience measurement is still catching up on new TV behaviors.

6 WHAT'S NEW? Audience measurement is still catching up on new TV behaviors consumption worldwide Worldwide average television viewing time in 2015 amounted to 3 hours and 14 minutes per day, when measured in over 88 countries around the world. This is a 3-minute decrease compared with 2014 but this is to be balanced by the fact that audience measurement is still catching up on new TV behaviors. While, in Canada for instance, 60% of the 18 to 34 years olds have watched an entire TV program online from start to finish over the last month. Only 31 countries measure time-shifted viewing, 14 countries measure TV viewing on computers and only 6 countries measure TV viewing on tablets and smartphones. Yet the contribution of new behaviors (non-linear viewing or viewing on other screens than the TV set) to TV audiences is far from negligible. In a scope of 26 countries that measure time-shifted viewing, this has brought in average 7% of additional audience to live viewing, which makes an average of 15 minutes per day. It is noteworthy that this phenomenon is not exclusive to young adults, since they consume time-shifted viewing in the same global proportions as the entire audience. In a reduced scope of the USA, the United Kingdom, France and the Netherlands, where time-shifted viewing is very developed, it is revealed that this behavior is benefiting both fiction and entertainment in the same proportions. TV consumption on other screens is today included in very few countries TV audience measurement, and when it is, it cannot be isolated from viewing on TV sets. That is all the challenge behind the fully unified 4 screen measurement that has been announced to be released in 7 countries in the near future (the Netherlands, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Sweden and Austria). This more complete and technically challenging audience measurement will allow to have audience details on others screens with the same degree of precision that we now have on TV sets. In the meantime, we still have significant clues of the contribution of mobile screens to TV audience. Firstly, because these practices are driven by increasing ownership of devices; for instance, two thirds of French people have a smartphone, while the same proportion of Dutch people own a tablet. Secondly because, in countries where streaming figures are available, including all screens like in Sweden, we detect a significant increase of streams over the last year. On the content side, the weight of fiction, entertainment and factual in the top 10 programs all over the world has remained stable between 2014 and 2015, with only a slight increase in fiction causing a minor drop in entertainment. Live events continue to gather a large TV audience: 151 million viewers watched CCTV s New Year s Eve Gala in China, which makes it once more the largest worldwide audience for a program. In other countries, we observe similar phenomena, with the top 1 audience of 2015 being respectively the Academy Awards in the United States, Miss Universe in Venezuela and the New Year s Eve gala in Iceland. The brand new edition of the One TV Year report is now available. For further information, please contact us!

Searching for authenticity through experimental entertainment formats consumption worldwide The 5th edition of the Entertainment Report reviews the hit successes for this genre in 2015.

7 Searching for authenticity through experimental entertainment formats consumption worldwide The 5th edition of the Entertainment Report reviews the hit successes for this genre in Long running talent shows and reality competitions continue to keep the lead worldwide with a few new types of programs that are keeping this genre on top. These programs show tests and experiences (experimental shows) and are mainly broadcast on secondary channels where they show authenticity through different situations. In 2015, new and successful experimental shows put authentic people in specific situations or in truly authentic lives where material things do not matter. There are two main types of experimental programs, in the first people live the daily life of other people or relive their own. This can be as a married couple in the format Married at First Sight (distributed by Red Arrow International), immigrants in Go Back to Where You Came From (distributed by Cordell Jigsaw). When living others experiences, the show s purpose is often societal and political and it is directly linked to today s world. Some other experimental formats put people in extreme situations in parallel worlds in order to see how contestants would behave. Indirectly, they also address current issues, thus making the viewer think about it. For instance, 10,000 BC (distributed by ITV Studios Global Entertainment) puts people in the past. At the crossroads of these two big genres of experimental shows, a lot of survival formats met success in As an example, The Island (distributed by Endemol Shine Group) performed well in the UK and in Germany it was the best performing launch of Pro7. With the experimental genre entertainment channels show some authenticity either thanks to real situations or thanks to authentic people in specific contexts, or finally by showing more than authentic ways of life without consumer materials. These authentic situations become a real reflection on our society. The live platform YouNow also shows authenticity in its own way. It is a UGC platform based on micro-transactions where anonymous ordinary people film themselves in their everyday lives, all of which is without any filter. For now, the content is mainly user generated but as for YouTube, it can become professionalized quite quickly and might even become the future platform of the reality shows. Indeed, there are more and more professional initiatives, and recently America s Got Talent (distributed by FremantleMedia International) used the platform to audition some of its contestants. While TV scripts an increasing number of its programs, the younger generation of viewers seems to demand more authenticity. This value has been the main claim of YouTubers and is currently the brand promise of YouNow. The brand new edition of the Entertainment report is now available.
