Hot in Cleveland hitting 100, gets renewed

US comedy series Hot in Cleveland has been renewed for a sixth season.

The sitcom, which will hit the landmark hundred episode during the current fifth run, is produced by Hazy Mills Productions and Endemol has international sales and format rights.

Endemol Worldwide Distribution has previously agreed deals for local versions of the comedy in Russia and shopped the finished version into 200 territories.

CBS Television Distribution handles US rights to the series and, having hit the 100 episode mark, it will enter US syndication later this year.

In the US it airs on Viacom’s cable net TV Land. The comedy follows a group of friends who unexpectedly find themselves in Cleveland and decide to stay.
