HBO trolling for overseas buyers


May 26, 2009 A company that determinedly zigs while others zag is following the lead of the six Hollywood majors this week, screening a trio of its new series for foreign TV program buyers. HBO unveiled three of its upcoming shows -- the dramedies "Hung," "Bored to Death" and "How to Make it in America" -- to potential buyers beginning Sunday at its Santa Monica offices, and it aims to conclude some licensing deals by week's end. Some 1,300 foreign buyers are spending the week in Hollywood to assess, and in some cases immediately ink deals for, the new U.S. series for the fall TV schedule.
