Exhibit 10.10

                                     FORM OF

                             STOCK ESCROW AGREEMENT

                STOCK ESCROW AGREEMENT, dated as of ___________ ___, 2007
("Agreement") by and among Media & Entertainment Holdings, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Company"), the undersigned parties listed as Initial Stockholders
on the signature page hereto (collectively, the "Initial Stockholders") and
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation ("Escrow
Agent").


                WHEREAS, the Company has entered into an Underwriting Agreement,
dated _______ __, 2007 ("Underwriting Agreement") with Lazard Capital Markets
LLC ("Lazard") and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. ("Ladenburg") acting as
co-representatives of the several underwriters (collectively with Lazard and
Ladenburg, the "Underwriters"), pursuant to which, among other matters, the
Underwriters have agreed to purchase 10,800,000 units ("Units") of the Company.
Each Unit consists of one share of the Company's Common Stock, par value $.0001
per share, and one Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock, all as more
fully described in the Company's definitive Prospectus, dated ________ __, 2007
("Prospectus") comprising part of the Company's Registration Statement on Form
S-1 (File No. 333-128218) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
("Registration Statement"), declared effective on ________ __, 2007 ("Effective
Date").


                WHEREAS, the Initial Stockholders have agreed as a condition of
the sale of the Units to deposit their shares of Common Stock of the Company, as
set forth opposite their respective names in Exhibit A attached hereto
(collectively "Escrow Shares"), in escrow as hereinafter provided.

                WHEREAS, the Company and the Initial Stockholders desire that
the Escrow Agent accept the Escrow Shares, in escrow, to be held and disbursed
as hereinafter provided.

                IT IS AGREED:

        1.      APPOINTMENT OF ESCROW AGENT. The Company and the Initial
Stockholders hereby appoint the Escrow Agent to act in accordance with and
subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such
appointment and agrees to act in accordance with and subject to such terms.

        2.      DEPOSIT OF ESCROW SHARES. On or before the Effective Date, each
of the Initial Stockholders shall deliver to the Escrow Agent certificates
representing his or her respective Escrow Shares, to be held and disbursed
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Initial Stockholder
acknowledges that the certificate representing his or her Escrow Shares is
legended to reflect the deposit of such Escrow Shares under this Agreement.

        3.      DISBURSEMENT OF THE ESCROW SHARES. The Escrow Agent shall hold
the Escrow Shares until the first anniversary of the completion by the Company
of a business combination ("Escrow Period"), on which date it shall, upon
written instructions from each Initial

<PAGE>


Stockholder, disburse each of the Initial Stockholder's Escrow Shares to such
Initial Stockholder; provided, however, that if the Escrow Agent is notified by
the Company pursuant to Section 6.7 hereof that the Company is being liquidated
at any time during the Escrow Period, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly
destroy the certificates representing the Escrow Shares; provided further, that
if, after the Company consummates a Business Combination (as such term is
defined in the Registration Statement), it (or the surviving entity)
subsequently consummates a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar
transaction which results in all of its stockholders of such entity having the
right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other
property, then the Escrow Agent will, upon receipt of a certificate, executed by
either the Chairman of the Board or President of the Company, in form reasonably
acceptable to the Escrow Agent, that such transaction is then being consummated,
release the Escrow Shares to the Initial Stockholders so that they can similarly
participate. The Escrow Agent shall have no further duties hereunder after the
disbursement or destruction of the Escrow Shares in accordance with this Section
3.

        4.      RIGHTS OF INITIAL STOCKHOLDERS IN ESCROW SHARES.

                4.1.    VOTING RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER. Subject to the terms of
the Insider Letter described in Section 4.4 hereof and except as herein
provided, the Initial Stockholders shall retain all of their rights as
stockholders of the Company during the Escrow Period, including, without
limitation, the right to vote such shares.

                4.2.    DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS IN RESPECT OF THE
ESCROW SHARES. During the Escrow Period, all dividends payable in cash with
respect to the Escrow Shares shall be paid to the Initial Stockholders, but all
dividends payable in stock or other non-cash property ("Non-Cash Dividends")
shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to hold in accordance with the terms
hereof. As used herein, the term "Escrow Shares" shall be deemed to include the
Non-Cash Dividends distributed thereon, if any.

                4.3.    RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. During the Escrow Period, no
sale, transfer or other disposition may be made of any or all of the Escrow
Shares except (i) by gift to a member of Initial Stockholder's immediate family
or to a trust or other entity, the beneficiary of which is an Initial
Stockholder or a member of an Initial Stockholder's immediate family, (ii) by
virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of any Initial
Stockholder, or (iii) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order;
provided, however, that such permissive transfers may be implemented only upon
the respective transferee's written agreement to be bound by the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and of the Insider Letter signed by the Initial
Stockholder transferring the Escrow Shares. During the Escrow Period, the
Initial Stockholders shall not pledge or grant a security interest in the Escrow
Shares or grant a security interest in their rights under this Agreement.


                4.4.    INSIDER LETTERS. Each of the Initial Stockholders has
executed a letter agreement with Lazard and Ladenburg and the Company, dated as
indicated on Exhibit A hereto, and which is filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement ("Insider Letter"), respecting the rights and obligations
of such Initial Stockholder in certain events, including but not limited to the
liquidation of the Company.

        5.      CONCERNING THE ESCROW AGENT.

                5.1.    GOOD FAITH RELIANCE. The Escrow Agent shall not be
liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in the exercise
of its own best judgment, and may rely conclusively and shall be protected in
acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel
(including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or
other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and
effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of
any information therein contained) which is believed by the Escrow Agent to be
genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The
Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver,
modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement unless evidenced by a
writing delivered to the Escrow Agent signed by the proper party or parties and,
if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall have
given its prior written consent thereto.

                5.2.    INDEMNIFICATION. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified
and held harmless by the Company from and against any expenses, including
counsel fees and disbursements, or loss suffered by the Escrow Agent in
connection with any action, suit or other proceeding involving any claim which
in any way, directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to this Agreement,
the services of the Escrow Agent hereunder, or the Escrow Shares held by it
hereunder, other than expenses or losses arising from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent. Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow
Agent of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit
or proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall notify the other parties hereto in
writing. In the event of the receipt of such notice, the Escrow Agent, in its
sole discretion, may commence an action in the nature of interpleader in an
appropriate court to determine ownership or disposition of the Escrow Shares or
it may deposit the Escrow Shares with the clerk of any appropriate court or it
may retain the Escrow Shares pending receipt of a final, non appealable order of
a court having jurisdiction over all of the parties hereto directing to whom and
under what circumstances the Escrow Shares are to be disbursed and delivered.
The provisions of this Section 5.2 shall survive in the event the Escrow Agent
resigns or is discharged pursuant to Sections 5.5 or 5.6 below.

                5.3.    COMPENSATION. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to
reasonable compensation from the Company for all services rendered by it
hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall also be entitled to reimbursement from the
Company for all expenses paid or incurred by it in the administration of its
duties hereunder including, but not limited to, all counsel, advisors' and
agents' fees and disbursements and all taxes or other governmental charges.

                5.4.    FURTHER ASSURANCES. From time to time on and after the
date hereof, the Company and the Initial Stockholders shall deliver or cause to
be delivered to the Escrow Agent such further documents and instruments and
shall do or cause to be done such further acts as the Escrow Agent shall
reasonably request to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of
this Agreement, to evidence compliance herewith or to assure itself that it is
protected in acting hereunder.

                5.5.    RESIGNATION. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and
be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder by its giving the other
parties hereto written notice and such resignation shall become effective as
hereinafter provided. Such resignation shall become

                                       3
<PAGE>


effective at such time that the Escrow Agent shall turn over to a successor
escrow agent appointed by the Company, the Escrow Shares held hereunder. If no
new escrow agent is so appointed within the 60 day period following the giving
of such notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may deposit the Escrow Shares
with any court it deems appropriate.

                5.6.    DISCHARGE OF ESCROW AGENT. The Escrow Agent shall resign
and be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder if so requested in
writing at any time by the other parties hereto, jointly, provided, however,
that such resignation shall become effective only upon acceptance of appointment
by a successor escrow agent as provided in Section 5.5.

                5.7.    LIABILITY. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Escrow Agent shall not be relieved from liability hereunder for
its own gross negligence or its own willful misconduct.

        6.      MISCELLANEOUS.

                6.1.    GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall for all purposes be
deemed to be made under and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of New York. Each of the parties hereby agrees that any action,
proceeding or claim against it arising out of or relating in any way to this
Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York
or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and
irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive.
Each of the parties hereby waives any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction
and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.


                6.2.    THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. Each of the Initial
Stockholders hereby acknowledges that the Underwriters are third party
beneficiaries of this Agreement and this Agreement may not be modified or
changed without the prior written consent of Lazard and Ladenburg.


                6.3.    ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement contains the entire
agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and,
except as expressly provided herein, may not be changed or modified except by an
instrument in writing signed by the party to the charged. It may be executed in
several original or facsimile counterparts, each one of which shall constitute
an original, and together shall constitute but one instrument.

                6.4.    HEADINGS. The headings contained in this Agreement are
for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation thereof.

                6.5.    BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the respective parties hereto and their legal
representatives, successors and assigns.

                6.6.    NOTICES. Any notice or other communication required or
