Facebook is trying its hand at TV, teaming with Time Warner’s HLN network to produce a pilot for a series that will use the popular social network to find and tell interesting stories.
“We don’t and they don’t want this to feel like ‘The Facebook Show,'” said Kari Kim, vice president of development at HLN, in an interview. “It’s really about the stories and how we are using their tools” to discover information and identify what’s happening around the world.
Executives at the network, which is part of CNN Worldwide, said initial details remain sketchy. The pilot will make it to air in the first half of 2015, said Lila King, HLN’s senior director of product strategy and partnerships, but the network remains uncertain so far as to what form the program will ultimately take.
Options ranging from a weekly format to a series of specials have all been discussed, said Kim. No hosts have been decided upon either.
