Over four days, the Tribeca TV Festival will bring the small screen to the big screen, giving attendees the first chance to see season premieres of returning shows and to discover new series. Each screening will be followed by talks with the creative minds from both behind and in front of the camera. In addition, the Festival will host standalone Tribeca Talks conversations with some of the biggest names in episodic storytelling.
A decade ago Bravo and the producers of The Real Housewives turned the lens on New York City and have turned this franchise into an empire that fans dare not miss, said Paula Weinstein, EVP of Tribeca Enterprises. Both The Real Housewives and Empire are true appointment TV shows and will be fun events for audiences to experience together at the Tribeca TV Festival.
For ten years, New York City has been the backdrop for some of the most explosively real drama on television, said Andy Cohen, executive producer of The Real Housewives franchise. I'm excited to dig into the behind the scenes stories of making the show.
These additions join the Festival's previously announced line-up: the 20th season premiere of NBC's Law & Order: SVU withstar and executive producer Mariska Hargitay, executive producer Dick Wolf, longtime co-star Ice-T, and members of the current cast; a look back at 10 years of dealmaking on ABC's Shark Tank with the Sharks; new season premieres from Emmy -nominated Tracey Ullman's Show with star and executive producer Tracey Ullman, who will be interviewed by Meryl Streep; Showtime's Emmy -nominated Ray Donovan with producer and starLiev Schreiber; CBS's Madam Secretary with star T a Leoni; Sony Crackle's StartUpwith Ron Perlman and Adam Brody; the premiere of the first episode of CNN's Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown's 12th season with Bourdain and W.
