Reported Problem for Vortex
posted by superboy97STAFFMOD on December 21, 2022 at 11:32 AM
Item: Vortex
Language: fr-FR
Type of Problem: Design_issue
Extra Details: As indicated on the RTBF website, "Elle est co-produite par la RTBF, AT-Production et Quad Drama, elle a été réalisée pour France 2. ". In English, that means : "It is coproduced by the RTBF, AT-Production and Quad Drama, it is made for France 2".
RTBF and AT-Production are Belgium companies, Quad Drama is a French company.
Here are the onscreen ending credits. "France Television" is only listed as "avec la participation de".
The series will be broadcasted:
- on Tipik (Belgium, part of RTBF) starting on December 27, 2022
- on France 2 (France) starting on January 2, 2023.
Which origin network should we consider ? Tipik or France 2 ? I'm hesitant, due to the above sentence.

Based on a private answer received from Banana, France 2 should be considered as the origin network.

Just to add a note, the show was also listed as "avec la participation de RTS Radio Television Suisse" and broadcasted also on RTS starting 25 december 2022 (first airing).

"avec la participation de" is a French term for "in association with" who designate just funding companies that aren't part of the production work. This is not the same as a coproduction credit.

I know, it's just to mention that the first airing was on RTS.

As indicated in our rules, we take in account the airing by the main production country.

I'm not contesting, as I said "Just to add a note". I know the show was produced for France 2, so It's considered as the main chanel (like "plus belle la vie" where episodes were 2 days ahead on Tipik but the offical date is the one from France 3)
