NEW YORK (Reuters) – Killer jellyfish, ghost towns and a cartoon weathergirl will be among the stars of a new 3-D television network under development by Discovery Communications Inc, Sony Corp and Imax Corp, the companies said on Monday.
In providing the first look at the 3-D cable network's schedule, the companies unveiled 10 series and specials, largely centered on natural history, exploration and children's programing. The network is due to launch in 2011.
Discovery, whose brands include Discovery Channel, TLC and Animal Planet, announced the partnership with Imax and Sony early last year, and since then has been bringing aboard management and building a roster of shows. In the past, a lack of 3-D programing has been one of the big barriers to 3-D television in the home.
Among the shows announced on Monday are the hour-long special "Attack of the Giant Jellyfish;" "Abandoned Planet," a series that looks at deserted cities; "Jewels of the World," a series that explores spots such as the Grand Canyon and Machu Picchu; "Into the Deep 3D," an undersea Imax special; and "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs," an animated feature about an inventor and a weathergirl based on the children's book.
