ITV Studios’ dating format My Mum, Your Dad Was Premiered in Portugal

ITV Studios’ dating format My Mum, Your Dad Was Premiered in Portugal
ITV Studios’ dating format "My Mum, Your Dad" was launched on Portuguese network SIC this Sunday, 26th October. Produced locally by Shine Iberia Portugal, "My Mum, Your Dad" is packed with heart, humour and surprises, this dating show with a difference sees single parents, with plenty of life experience and college-aged kids of their own, looking for love in a luxurious mansion! Without the singles’ knowledge, the kids get to secretly observe their mum or dad and complete challenges to win the right to meddle.

The news follows the announcement earlier in October, that "My Mum, Your Dad" has been recommissioned for a second season in Brazil by Globoplay, following a successful first run. The format, originally created by Greg and Haley Daniels and produced by ITV Entertainment and Robola Entertainment for HBO Max in the US, has also been remade locally in the UK (ITV), Australia (Nine Network), Belgium (RTL-TVI), Germany (Vox), France (TF1), French Canada (TVA), New Zealand (TV3), Poland (Polsat) and Sweden (TV4).

"My Mum, Your Dad" is known for winning hearts wherever it airs – the UK version was ITV1’s biggest new peak-time entertainment format when it launched in 2023 and the second most streamed show in its launch month on ITVX, and the French-Canadian version secured the highest share in its primetime slot.

Deal with Bell Media

ITV Studios has closed a series of significant sales to leading Canadian company, Bell Media, across its world-class drama and non-scripted slate.  The deal brokered by Craig Bohland, VP Sales, Canada, ITV Studios and Bell Media includes the exciting new scripted titles from critically acclaimed producers: "Coldwater" from SISTER; "What it Feels Like for a Girl" from Hera Pictures and "The Gathering" from World Productions, part of ITV Studios, will launch on Bell Media’s streaming service Crave, and leading television network CTV. 

Also secured for Crave and CTV are the upcoming season of "Love Island All Stars" from ITV Studios and GroupM Motion Entertainment, plus new seasons of "The Voice" and "Hell’s Kitchen" from ITV America.

Katie Buchanan, EVP Americas Global Partnerships at ITV Studios, said, “We’re thrilled to continue our greatly valued partnership with Bell Media, and can’t wait to see this standout mix of scripted and non-scripted titles become some of the most talked about shows on their platforms. From gripping, character-led dramas, including the highly talked about thriller 'Coldwater', which is set to air in over 40 countries, to returning entertainment juggernauts, like 'Love Island', 'The Voice' and 'Hell’s Kitchen', this deal showcases some of the best of ITV Studios’ slate.
