RiC TV welcomes ‘The Fairly OddParents’ and changes Astra slot

December 18, 2024 08.00 Europe/London By Jörn Krieger

From 1 January 2025, German children’s channel RiC TV will bring the animated series The Fairly OddParents to German-speaking audiences in Europe.

The award-winning show, featuring the misadventures of 10-year-old Timmy Turner and his fairy godparents Cosmo and Wanda, will air daily at 19:00 CET.

The launch coincides with a technical upgrade for RiC TV, as the free-TV channel transitions to an optimised frequency on the Astra satellite system (19.2° East) as part of a renewed capacity agreement with Austrian technical service provider ORS.

The new slot at 11,302 GHz H (SR 22.000, FEC 2/3) will be the channel’s permanent home from 2025. The parallel transmission on the previous frequency will be terminated on 31 December 2024.

“The premiere of The Fairly OddParents on RiC TV underscores our commitment to providing high-quality, family-friendly content. This series combines imagination, humour and positive values, making it a perfect fit for our philosophy. We invite all viewers to discover RiC TV’s new frequency and embark on a magical journey,” said Laurence Robinet, Chief Broadcast Officer of parent company Your Family Entertainment (YFE).
