USA Seizes Marketing ‘Moment’ With Christian Community
11 April 2013 1:56 PM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »
You don’t need to be a prophet to see this burgeoning trend in television.
With “American Bible Challenge” breaking Gsn’s ratings records, “The Bible” miniseries pulling over 10 million viewers a week on History, and Lifetime’s “Preachers’ Daughters” offering a cheekier take on religion, faith-friendly fare is having a big impact on general entertainment networks.
“Bible Challenge” exec producer Tom Forman has even quipped that he can’t believe it’s taken mainstream TV “this long” to realize that there is an untapped market with the Christian community, noting that almost three-quarters of the U.S. identifies itself as Christian.
Now, USA is trying its hand in the space with reality series “The Moment.”
Program, which bows on USA tonight at 10 p.m., offers Americans a second chance at their dreams, be it becoming a Nascar driver or a sports photog, with the help of a skilled mentor. »

The Moment – Dreams can come true when Kurt Warner has your back
11 April 2013 7:14 AM, PDT | BuzzFocus.com | See recent BuzzFocus.com news »
USA Network’s The Moment premieres tonight, a Reality TV series that gives people another shot at living out their life passions – just like host Kurt Warner, the famous, undrafted free agent who went on to win two NFL Mvp awards and a Superbowl Mvp award with the St. Louis Rams.
Truth be told, I’m not a fan of reality television, especially not the billion flavors of singing tournaments or Kardashian-esque indulgence.
Reality TV is a mixed bag of redundant competitions, celebrity tomfoolery and true stories that are purportedly inspirational. The reality of these programs are often lost if we can’t blind ourselves to the truth, that most of these shows have a scripted segment. And, let’s not forget about the predictable, cliffhanger-commercial cuts.
However, even I have a soft spot in my heart for Reality TV programs that actually try to do something important. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition »

More Disney-Lucasfilm ‘Star Wars’ Synergy — This Time On ABC’s ‘Once Upon A Time’
20 January 2013 10:52 PM, PST | Deadline TV | See recent Deadline TV news »
When volunteers dressed as Darth Vader and his Storm Troopers helped build a house on an Extreme Makeover: Home Edition special a month after Disney‘s acquisition of Lucasfilm was announced, the Mouse House dismissed the corporate synergy as a coincidence as the ABC special had been filmed a year prior. But that cannot be said about tonight’s episode of ABC’s fairytale drama Once Upon A Time, which featured the Star Wars music theme. Incorporating Star Wars into the show is tricky as it takes place almost exlusively in fairytale world — past and present. But the first chance the producers had to introduce Star Wars since the Lucasfilm acquisition — when a guy from Pennsylvania drives into fairytale Storybrooke — they took it: When the stranger’s cell phone rang, its ringtone was the Star Wars theme. The homage shouldn’t come as a surprise, as Once Upon A Time »
