Dori Media Group Unveils Unscripted Formats Ahead of Mipcom (EXCLUSIVE)

As a seasoned cinema connoisseur who has spent countless hours immersed in the captivating world of unscripted television, I find myself utterly intrigued by the latest offerings from Dori Media Group (DMG). Their Mipcom lineup is a veritable treasure trove of innovative formats that cater to a wide array of tastes and preferences.


International production company, Dori Media Group (DMG), has revealed a wealth of unscripted programs prior to Mipcom.

The lineup features dating shows such as “Spy Date” and “Love at Third Sight”, the trivia-centered game show “Smart Face”, talent competitions like “Da Next”, the street game titled “Intuition”, reality competition “Stand-Up Warrior”, and the polished floor game show, “The Best of All”.

Dori Media’s CEO and president, Nadav Palti, shared that there is a global demand for novel, unscripted television formats from viewers. At Mipcom, we will present an array of innovative, fresh unscripted formats that we think will captivate audiences globally,” he stated.

He mentioned that our group is going to exhibit a wide variety of unscripted show formats – reality, games, dating, competitions, and also a brand-new ‘shiny floor’ style show with immense promise.

Absolutely, global unscripted TV markets are quite strong and resilient, tending to thrive or even gain more attention amid challenges like price increases, reductions in networks, and market shifts.

Dori Media’s popular reality show “Power Couple” has already been broadcast in over 20 different nations, and further releases are planned for the coming period, as stated by Palti.

The pairing titled “Power Couple” debuted a month ago on Videoland in the Netherlands and quickly soared to popularity, taking the second spot among all series on the platform.

Originally developed by Abot Hameiri, the popular show “Power Couple” has just been renewed in Germany, Brazil, Hungary, Mexico, Romania, Croatia, and Slovenia for more seasons, and is now set to premiere in additional countries such as Sweden, Denmark, Finland, and Norway.

Dori will additionally introduce the groundbreaking cooking show “Yum Factor” by Abot Hameiri to the food contest at Cannes, which flips conventional cooking shows upside down.

Dori Media will be represented by a team of sales executives at Mipcom in October. This includes Joshua Mintz, the chief content officer of Dori Media International, along with Carolina Sabbag, VP sales for Western Europe, USA, Canada & Australia; Maria Perez Campi, director of sales for Latam, US Hispanic & Asia; sales manager Camila Premet for CEE, CIS, Africa & MENA; and the newly appointed India sales manager, Devdatta Potnis. Palti will also be present at the event.

 A Drill Down on Dori Media’s Unscripted Slate:

Yum Factor” – Cooking Guessing Competition

Instead of a typical cooking show, “Yum Factor” amps up the excitement in culinary competitions by featuring everyday cooks. Three enthusiastic home chefs go toe-to-toe, preparing dishes to win a substantial prize. However, the unique twist is that it’s not just about crafting the ideal dish – it’s about anticipating which flavors will captivate the palates of the judges who are ordinary individuals with distinct tastes rather than food professionals. On this show, it’s all about the “Yum Factor,” where anyone has the potential to be the next culinary breakout star.

“Intuition” – Street Game Show

Hailing from the mind behind the global phenomenon “Smart Face,” a fresh new game show emerges, shining a light on intuition. In “Intuition,” there’s no need for specialized knowledge; all you require is a strong hunch. Can everyday people accurately guess details about strangers based solely on observation? Is she married or single? How much cash does he carry in his wallet? Each installment showcases a contestant attempting to answer 10 questions about an unknown individual, with the opportunity to win up to $10,000. This game is all about putting your faith in your instincts as you take a guess.

“Spy Date” – Reality Dating Show

Two individuals who’ve given up on dating apps unexpectedly find themselves caught up in a scheme orchestrated by a former military operative and matchmaker. Over a span of two weeks, these schemers aim to bring the pair together for a date through carefully arranged “coincidental” meetings. Operating from a hidden surveillance van, they employ technology, actors, and auxiliary personnel to subtly intervene at crucial moments, gradually bringing the couple closer without their knowledge.

“Smart Face” – Trivia Game Show

In this unique game setup, participants are presented with questions they can’t respond to directly. Instead, they must approach an unsuspecting passerby on the street to serve as their proxy respondent. If the stranger provides the correct solution, the contestant receives a cash reward and progresses to the next question. However, if the response is incorrect, the participant is disqualified from the competition.

“Love at Third Sight” – Docu-Reality Format

In this inspiring documentary-style series, colorful seniors venture on a 14-day trip to a lavish resort in pursuit of romance. By participating in tailored activities, enjoying romantic outings, and engaging in meaningful discussions, they create bonds while navigating the complexities of dating at an advanced age. With advice from relationship specialists, they rekindle affection and address past hurts. The series culminates in a touching finale, unveiling which couples have found enduring love, honoring the idea that it’s never too late to start fresh.

Da Next” – Digital Talent Competition

I’m involved in an exciting talent showcase designed for the younger generation. As a participant, I can submit my audition through Instagram, YouTube, or TikTok. Mentors and influential figures support us along the way. My team of six collaborates with one mentor to create and record a song, which we then share on social media. The journey towards the finale begins as we, our mentors, influencers, and fans compete for the highest engagement on digital platforms to emerge victorious in this competition.

“Stand-Up Warrior” – Reality Competition

As a movie buff, I’d rephrase it like this: In a grueling 10-week tournament, 14 comedians step into a martial arts training ground, trading their joke-telling for sparring gloves. Guided by martial arts masters, they battle not only in the ring but also outside it, each one striving to be the last comic standing and claim the title of Stand-Up Warrior.

“The Best of All” – Shiny Floor Game Show

Investigating the concept known as “The Wisdom of the Crowd,” we present an exciting game show titled “The Best of All.” In this program, a vast audience squares off against studio contestants. The questions presented are visually stimulating and jaw-dropping, challenging whether combined responses can surpass those of experts. This entertaining spectacle offers enjoyment for everyone, regardless if they’re participating or simply watching.
