about
Meetinghouse Productions is a New York City–based independent production company founded in 2007 by Jason Cilo. Over nearly two decades, Meetinghouse has produced more than 1,000 hours of television and digital content for Discovery, A&E, Travel Channel, truTV, Food Network, and many others, with programming reaching audiences across North America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and Latin America.
Where possible, Meetinghouse helps its network clients meet the challenging headwinds of the content business through creative financing structures and by retaining international distribution rights across its catalog, with programming distributed globally by companies like A+E International, Banijay, Rocket Rights, and Electus.
Current long-running franchises include Paranormal Caught on Camera (Discovery+) and A&E's "Wars" series — Road Wars, Customer Wars, and Neighborhood Wars.
Jason Cilo founded Meetinghouse in 2007 after beginning his career at Day & Date, a nationally syndicated daily newsmagazine produced by CBS/Westinghouse, and then joining the original launch team at MSNBC in 1997. He went on to spend six years at Viacom/VH1 as an in-house producer, writer, and showrunner. Beyond television, he has directed and produced commercials, feature documentaries, animated short films, and legitimate theatrical productions.
He lives in NYC with his family, and his avocations include writing about himself in the third person, producing and hosting Full Cast and Crew — a movie podcast he wishes he'd originally titled Indistinct Chatter, but it's nearly 300 episodes in and far too late — and skiing, playing golf and tennis, all with considerably more enthusiasm than skill.
