MBC4 announced its comprehensive and content-rich new grid of locally produced flagship programs, coupled with those acquired globally, with its aim to continue raising the levels of engagement with Arab women and simultaneously widen its audience base to young Arab families. In this context, the channel announced the launch of a multitude of new programs and series, most notably the top-rated global TV format "Got Talent" in its Arabic version: "Arabs' Got Talent".
