The Endz - TV Drama Series
HARD HITTING MANCHESTER BASED WEB SERIES - NOW HITS USA TOP TELEVISION NETWORKS
SDMC productions present THE ENDZ, a new television drama based one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Manchester.
Creator, Actor, Director, Chris Kenna is the star of SDMC's latest hard hitting series. It is a reflection of some the experiences that he has faced himself in his life and this is why it has so much appeal to a large audience - everybody can relate to these trials and tribulations of everyday life.
This show is different to anything you have seen before. The love, the tears and the battles that go on in the housing estates, captivates its audience, as the emotion is real and true. Follow a group of young adults trying to survive in these difficult times.
You are invited to join in with the happy times and the sad ones too.
THE ENDZ stands apart from any other show as it is Co-written and produced by people from Manchester, people who can tell their story accurately and who can portray the impact of drugs, sex and racism in these estates. The series shows a journey of friendship, love and betrayals.
Actor/Director Chris Kenna says:
Start Quote" The ENDZ started as an idea that moved to script. I then funded the pilot myself and that was a hit across the net attracting more than 3 million views across various sites.
We were then approached by US Sales Agent ' Maureen Cooper CEO - Goliath Promotions' who was very interested in the series for US Network Contacts. She has negotiated The Endz will be released with the roll out of the new Goliatharts channel on Popbox and Boxee, one of the two top competitors of set top box cable companies in the U.S. And soon to be streamed through Goliatharts to IPDVD set top box cable in China.
Our series and Sound Track by original Artists for 'The Endz' has also just been signed to an International deal with YUU HIPHOP Mobile Phone channel in LEBANON moving to 22 Middle Eastern Countries and Australia. Which We think is Fantastic News !!!

We are now in discussions with various Major UK Channels to also broadcast the series in the UK.
I think this shows the growing interest in British Produced Drama in the States and around the world, as we found it impossible for UK Broadcasters to take a look at the series at first, but the international community seemed to love it.
All the cast and crew have had major input into how The ENDZ looks and helping to make it look like a true reflection of young life. We are on a rollercoaster at the minute but nonetheless we are all excited to see where this will lead !! " END QUOTE
Kenna, along with the rest of the nation, shares a passion for television and dramas and has always felt that there was something missing - he felt like the dramas as good as they were written never really matched real life and this is what made him put the wheels in motion for this true to life, almost reality, show.
The ENDZ has grown from one person, to a cast, to an internet show with a massive following, as it portrays real street gang life, pushing the boundaries of crime in society.
Proving that Web Based Dramas are becoming more popular and can lead both Writers, Directors and Actors to Bigger, Better Things.
