The launch grants VIZIO WatchFree+’s audience unlimited and free access to Blue Ant Media’s extensive library of true crime-inspired shows and documentaries. TotalCrime’s programming highlights include "Confessions of a Serial Killer," which uncovers taped confessions of the most notorious serial killers in history, "Handsome Devils," which features real stories of handsome and enchanting men, who are everything a person has ever dreamed of in a partner, only to turn into their worst nightmare, "I Didn't Do It," , a series that exposes the untold story of wrongful convictions, one gut-wrenching case at a time, chronicling harrowing personal stories and the desperate search for the real criminals behind the crimes; "Encounters With Evil," (10 x 60’), which explores the minds of the perpetrators of notorious crimes using expert analysis and interviews with those closest to the case; "The Killer in My Family," a series that focuses on the relatives of murderers, revealing how the crimes affected their families and whether there were any signs of murderous intentions beforehand.

Blue Ant Media’s suite of FAST channels is now accessible on VIZIO WatchFree+, The Roku Channel, Xumo, Samsung TV Plus and PrendeTV.
