Viasat expands True Crime footprint with United Group

April 4, 2025 13.00 Europe/London By Julian Clover

Viasat True Crime is to launch on all platforms run by United Group, making the channel available in Bulgaria, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Greece.  

Following the channel’s successful debut in Poland in 2024 where 6.4 million people have tuned in since launch, Viasat True Crime has expanded into Croatia, Czechia, Slovakia, and Slovenia. 

The fully localised crime-themed television channel will now be available on United Group EON TV platforms across six countries. Viasat World has also secured the SVOD rights for much of the new channel’s content. Viasat True Crime and SVOD will be part of Telemach Slovenia, Telemach Croatia, Telemach Bosnia, Telemach Montenegro, Vivacom Bulgaria and Nova Greece offer from April 2025.


Benjamin Groocock, CEO for Viasat World says: “We couldn’t be more delighted that United Group has chosen to launch Viasat True Crime on all its platforms across multiple territories. Our newest channel has been on an accelerated growth trajectory since it first launched in June 2024 and is now available to fans throughout much of Central and Eastern Europe.”


Suzana Radošević, Content Management Director at United Group adds: “Our commitment to delivering better services to our subscribers remains at the forefront, and we believe this collaboration will enhance our linear and SVOD offerings with fresh, exciting movies and series from the highly popular true crime genre.”

Viasat True Crime delves deep into the world’s most shocking crimes, offering an extensive lineup of gripping content – from in-depth documentaries on real-life cases to chilling true crime dramas and compelling crime-fighting reality shows.
