CMG Holdings Group Inc. Creative Management Group Inc. Agency Advises Client Frogwater Media for Sale of TV Series

From Deep Fried Tarantula to Cobra Snake Bloody Marys in a Shot Glass, Chefs Run Wild Takes Travel+Escape Viewers on an Adrenaline-Fuelled Adventure Across Southeast Asia

MIAMI, Oct. 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- CMG Holdings Group Inc. Creative Management Group Inc. Agency (CMGO) (OTCBB: CMGO), www.cmgholdingsinc.com, a full service marketing communications company operating in the sectors of commercial rights, event management and talent and broadcast management, is pleased to announce that its Chairman and CEO, Alan Morell, served as advisor to Frogwater Media Executive Producer Tim Troke. Developed and produced by Frogwater Media from the prestigious Taste Award winning "Best Food Travel Web Series" (2009, 2010), the 13-part television series Chefs Run Wild makes it North American broadcast premiere on the specialty channel Travel+Escape. Chefs Run Wild's broadcast is timed to coincide with the network's re-launch on November 1 with a three-month national free preview and advertising campaign.

"When I was pitched the series about three chefs (and best friends) from Winnipeg who decide to quit their jobs, travel for six months on $30 a day, I thought that sounds like a show we want! Chefs Run Wild brings great personalities and adventure to the Travel+Escape audience - a taste of what's ahead as we re-launch our schedule with over 300 hours of new acquired and commissioned content," says Marcia Martin, SVP Creative Content, Commissioned and In-House Production at GlassBOX Television.

Three Canadian trained chefs, twin brothers Chad and Clayton Klyne together with fellow adventurer Lyndon Wiebe, travel across Southeast Asia to experience and document the culture, rituals and authentic regional dishes from Laos's spit-roasted lizard to a cobra heart 'Bloody Mary' served up in a shot glass. Not for the lily-livered or squeamish, viewing is recommended on an empty stomach!

"We wanted to show Asia and all its beauty through a traveller's eye, and show the highs and lows of travel on a budget. We demonstrated that, through the simple act of preparing and sharing a meal, you can break down the barriers of culture, race and language. But it wasn't always easy," comments Chad Klyne.

Chefs Run Wild heads to Toronto and into final production from September 6. The series is executive produced by Frogwater Media's Tim Troke. A cookbook featuring the chefs' favourite exotic recipes (alongside the westernized version) is currently in development under representation of CMG Holdings Group Inc. Creative Management Group Inc. Agency Chairman and CEO Alan Morell.
