Discovery launches channel on Pluto TV

November 20, 2018 14.18 Europe/London By Robert Briel

Discovery has signed a deal with Pluto TV that will see content from the media company be distributed on the ad-supported streaming TV and VOD service.

Discovery is taking select programming from six of its networks (Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, ID, Discovery Life, Science Channel and TLC) and bringing it together on its own Pluto TV Channel.

Under the non-exclusive content deal, programming coming to the streaming service includes TLC’s Kate Plus 8, Animal Planet’s River Monsters, Discovery Channel’s Misfit Garage, and ID’s Dates from Hell.

“Having our world-class Discovery content as part of Pluto’s offering reinforces Discovery’s commitment to reach all viewers across all screens, platforms and devices,” said Gabriel Sauerhoff, SVP Digital Distribution, Discovery.

“We are excited to provide audiences another way to access the shows that they love, while also introducing these brands and series to new viewers.”
