Last night, a US version of the "Yes" series, called "68 Whiskeys," was released in the United States after the military code for medical force at the forefront. Signed on the American series as the lead producer of one of Hollywood's most respected directors, Ron Howard ("Apollo 13," "The Da Vinci Code").

Like the Israeli source, the American "TAG" is a comic drama that follows a group of military medics. The plot takes place at the US military base in Afghanistan, known as the "orphanage," and the medics confront the military service routine in a dangerous and sometimes absurd reality.

In the lead role is an rising Irish actor named Sam Killey, who plays a medic by the name of Cooper Robak, a kind of equivalent of Sergeant Daniel Emerilio (played by Tomer Capon). Most of the cast is made up of new names in the Hollywood landscape, with the exception of Derek Thiller who is known for the six seasons of the sitcom. Baby Daddy "(and appeared in series like" A Good Place in the Middle, "" 90210 "and" American Gods. ") Tiller embodies a private-hired fighter and has a conflict with Robak, a corps in his regular service. This rivalry is somewhat reminiscent of rivalry Between Emerilio and Deputy Ethan (Tom Graziani) in the Israeli series.

"68 Whiskey" will soon be available in Israel as well, while filming for the second season of Israeli "TAG" is completed. After the success of "Fawde", which was sold to Netflix, the sale of "TAG" is another international achievement of yes.

The creator and writer of "68 Whiskey" is Roberto Benaviv, a Jew of Spanish descent, a son of parents born in Turkey and Mexico. He has been a screenwriter in series such as "Elly Parallel" and "The Neighbor's Grass" and was also on the series' producers alongside Ron Howard and his partner Brian Grizer. Among the producers of the American series is also the creator of "TAG", Zion Rubin. This is a rich time for Israeli creation, and in my opinion, it stems from the conflict at the heart of your reality: to love the country but to understand its difficulties. With us, this happened around the Vietnam War. When life is in the gray area, it is fertile ground to write and create amazing things. There is depth in what lies between the good and the bad. Everyone has to draw conclusions independently and that encourages thought and creativity, even in the viewer. "

Another series of yes that is already working on its American version is "Your Honor." The processing is just as important as Michelle and Robert King, creators of the "Good Woman," for the Showtime network. Whoever gets into Yoram Hatab's shoes is none other than Brian Cranston, in his first television role since "Breaking Line" came off the screen. "Your Honor" is also expected to receive local versions in India, Germany, France, Italy and Russia.

In addition, recently the pilot episode of the US version of the award-winning "Spectrum" has been completed for Amazon content provider. The project is responsible for screenwriter and esteemed producer Jason Katims ("Friday Night Lights", "Full Time Parents"). A French version of the series about the young autistic is also under development.
