Keshet International has signed an agreement with TV3 Group in Latvia for the local production of Traffic Light (Ramzor), the comedy that won the International Emmy for Best Series in 2010. Under the title Luksoforsand produced by SIA Seriālu mājas, the Latvian version will have two seasons with a total of 118 episodes (57×30′ and 61×30′), the first of which is confirmed to premiere on 1 September on TV3 and on the Go3platform.
Originally created by Adir Miller for Keshet Broadcasting and Endemol Israel, Traffic Light revolves around three lifelong friends who are going through the different stages of adulthood: marriage, parenthood, relationships, and the temptation of single life. Their contrasting experiences lead to hilarious situations and misguided advice, proving that among friends, honesty is not always the best policy.
The cast of Luksofors is led by Artūrs Putniņš (Paradizes skele), Jānis Āmanis (Dream Team 1935) and Kaspars Zāle (Firstborn). The series is directed by Ričardas Vitkaitis, with scripts by Elita Krūmiņliepa and Laura Jeruma, and showrunning by Ieva Salceviča and Rimvydas Martinaitis.
The format has already been adapted in countries such as Russia, Lithuania, Greece, Slovakia and the United States, confirming its global appeal. With Luksofors, TV3 is betting on a long-running series, designed to entertain Latvian audiences with everyday humor.
