The Xavatar Show Feat. Colin O’Donoghue Gets Broadcast Deal

The Ovation Network and UpTV have been announced as the first broadcast partners for The Xavatar Show. The series stars Colin O’Donoghue and promises to be the first animated terrestrial TV series and radio show produced and broadcast from the metaverse.

The Xavatar Show is based on the Xavatar space station where each guest joins via their personal Xavatar avatar. Audiences are transported to locales around the world following the featured guest’s personal journey – from childhood to content created focusing on their career highs. TXS is the only series which provides a portal for its audience to actively join in the sessions via the show’s own cross platform metaverse, the Xataverse. Across devices (with or without VR headsets), anyone is welcomed to explore the places the guests have visited and lived. Each environment also includes gaming, social networking, 3D retail experiences and much more.

The series comes from film producer Rose Ganguzza, and show creator and music executive Jason P Rothberg with house DJ, EMF founding member, Milfredo Seven.

TXS team includes co-creator Kevin Sharpley as director/writer/producer, co-creator Gianfranco Bianchi as creative-director/producer, Dean Lyon as visual effects director, Milfredo Seven as TSR DJ, and Twiggy – Rothberg’s wise-guy drone robot sidekick who can transform into just about anything, mostly for comic relief.

The series is eyeing a Q2 2024 premiere.
