Sender Films is proud to announce the long-awaited U.S. TV premiere of First Ascent: The Series.
On Thursday, Nov. 4th, The Travel Channel will beam two straight hours of the First Ascent Series into more than 95 million homes across the country, right in the middle of primetime!
The series will air in four back-to-back episodes. Click here for showtimes. There will be additional airings of all 6 episodes throughout the winter. Please check the series out on Travel Channel and push the Nielsen ratings high so we can get more climbing and adventure film on the air!
To help promote the airing, Pete and Nick of Sender will be on NBC’s Last Call with Carson Daly, late night Wednesday, November 3rd. The boys were in Los Angeles last week shooting the piece for Carson and they are optimistic that it will be a very cool mini-feature. It was fun, and a bit disarming, for us to be on the other side of the camera for a change!
Of course, we hope these airings will encourage more people to purchase the entire First Ascent Box Set at www.senderfilms.com. Its available as a beautiful 3-disc box set with inspired graphics by Barry Thompson, and also as an HD download. In both versions you get all 6 episodes and a bonus 7th episode, plus hours of bonus footage and making-of shorts, and we even throw in a free copy of the soundtrack as well for box set buyers. We’ve been receiving great feedback on the box set, with many people calling it a collector’s item they are proud to have on their living room shelf… Huge
