FYI(TM) GREENLIGHTS NEW ORIGINAL SERIES "PREFABULOUS" (WORKING TITLE)

EIGHT HALF-HOUR EPISODES PRODUCED BY VOX ENTERTAINMENT

CURBED.COM TO PARTNER WITH SERIES

NEW YORK, Wednesday, May 4, 2016 - FYI has ordered the new series "Prefabulous" (working title) from Vox Entertainment, Vox Media's Los Angeles-based programming and development division, it was announced today as part of Vox Media's annual presentation to advertisers. Curbed, Vox Media's real estate and home brand, will partner with FYI to provide unique editorial, creative and promotional elements for the series. Production begins immediately on eight half-hour episodes.

Said Paul Greenberg, Executive Vice President and General Manager of FYI, "We are thrilled to partner with such a like-minded brand as Vox Media. This production deal speaks to the fact that FYI is truly a cross-platform brand, as well as one that's constantly on the cutting edge of creating groundbreaking content. FYI was the first network to capture the cultural phenomenon of downsizing and living tiny with 'Tiny House Nation' and now we'll delve into another millennial facing home trend with pre-fab living."

"Prefabulous" (w.t.) celebrates America's next big trend in real estate, prefabricated homes. Pre-fab living has become the "new" American dream for homebuyers who want all things custom, at a reasonable price. No longer the generic pre-fab homes of yesteryear, architects and designers are building high-end, architecturally stunning, yet affordable fully customizable homes and getting it all done on a very short timeline. In each episode of the series, viewers will follow an individual or family as they embark on building their dream pre-fab home.

"We want audiences to connect with Vox Media brands wherever they are - across every platform and device they are using - that includes websites, social and mobile platforms, live events, text, video, audio, and now in our first extension to television with FYI," said Marty Moe, President, Vox Media and Vox Entertainment. "We're excited to work with FYI to take Curbed's expertise around the pre-fab housing trend to television - as it is consistently one of the top topics across all of Curbed's channels and has proven to draw in a large, young and modern audience."

"Prefabulous" (w.t.) is produced by Vox Entertainment, a division of Vox Media, for FYI. Executive producers for Vox Entertainment are Marty Moe, Chad Mumm and Kelsey Keith. Gena McCarthy and Liz Fine will serve as executive producers for FYI.
