Syfy UK heads to Midnight, Texas

Pay TV channel Syfy UK has bought network drama Midnight, Texas from Comcast cousin NBCUniversal International Distribution.

The supernatural-themed thriller is set in a remote Texan town where being strange is normal and only outsiders fit in. François Arnaud (Blindspot stars).

It will debut in the UK in July.

NBCU International Networks VP of programming for UK and Europe Chrystele Fremaux said Midnight, Texas’s “community of vampires, witches, werewolves, psychics and other-worldly characters is a perfect choice for Syfy viewers”.

Universal Television and David Janollari Entertainment coproduce the ten-part series, which plays on NBC in the US.
