SBS Discovery Norway expect to premiere top-rating truTV shows including The Carbonaro Effect, South Beach Tow and The World’s Dumbest on their channels in Norway.
“truTV’s amusing and entertaining unscripted content has had a buzz going on in Scandinavia, so it’s about time we give the viewers what they’re asking for.
