Go Button Media announces that four of its factual series will find a new home on Canada’s Super Channel Fuse. Acquisitions "The Animal Within" and "Colossal Machines" receive their premieres in December and January respectively. Two new Super Channel Originals, "Mysteries of the Ancient Dead" and "Secret Societies: In the Shadows", will follow later in 2022.
