Judge Clears HBO of Copyright Infringement in ‘FBoy Island’ Case

A recent decision by a judge in the Southern District of New York has concluded that the canceled HBO reality TV show “FBoy Island” does not infringe on the copyright of a similar reality show pitch. The producer behind the pitch had pursued legal action, alleging that HBO’s show was “substantially similar” to his own concept. However, the court found differences sufficient to rule out copyright infringement. For further details, visit the original article on Law360.
