UK’s DTH platform Freesat has announced the addition of Paramount Network to its line-up of entertainment channels.
On channel number 132, viewers will have access to US scripted drama, comedy and movies featuring Hollywood stars. Paramount Network replaces 5Star+1.
Highlights across April and May include US dramas such as political thriller, Designated Survivor, starring Kiefer Sutherland and Suits, the iconic legal drama set in a cut-throat US law firm. From Marvel there’s Agent Carter, as well as the adventures of DC hero Arrow.
There’s also comedy with hit US hidden camera show, Impractical Jokers, as four real-life friends challenge each other to prank unsuspecting members of the public; while fans of Dunder Miflin can reacquaint themselves with the spoof US fly-on-the-wall documentary, The Office from the very beginning.
Angie Mee, Head of Content Partnerships, Freesat, said, “Our viewers have already had a taste of Paramount Network via My5 on Freesat, so we’re delighted to give them the chance now to experience the full range of exciting and varied programming available and to expand our portfolio of entertainment channels even further.”
