Pluto TV announced a new partnership with NBCUniversal (NBCU) Global TV Distribution to bring an array of comedy, dramedy, iconic action, and fan favourites to viewers in the UK and Canada, starting November 1, 2024. In Canada, Pluto TV is proud to introduce all seasons of critically acclaimed “Will & Grace” as the crown jewel of the “More Pluto TV Comedy” channel, alongside other great comedies such as “Becker,” “Wings,” and “Dear John.”
In the UK, Pluto TV is bringing the much talked about, not-so-‘hidden gem’, “Psych” to its brand new “Pluto TV Comedy Drama” channel. All seasons of the highly addictive series will be available on Pluto TV for free for all fans of the dramedy genre. The channel will also showcase light-hearted action dramas like “Scorpion” and comedies including “The Millers” and “The Odd Couple.”
Additionally, Pluto TV is launching two new dedicated channels in the UK and Canada: PLUTO TV 80s Action and PLUTO TV Sci-Fi. PLUTO TV 80s Action will feature NBCU’s action-packed nostalgic hits “The A-Team,” “Knight Rider,” and “Miami Vice.” PLUTO TV Sci-Fi (known as PLUTO TV Sci-Fi Series in the UK) will showcase NBCU’s intergalactic favorites “Quantum Leap,” “Sliders,” and “Battlestar Galactica.” Starting in November, PLUTO TV 80s Action will kick off with “The A-Team,” and PLUTO TV Sci-Fi with “Quantum Leap.”
Olivier Jollet, Executive Vice President and International General Manager at Pluto TV estimated that the agreement will strengthen the FAST business:“Partnerships are our superpower, and collaborating with industry leaders like NBCUniversal not only brings legendary titles to our platform, but also helps strengthen the FAST business, giving our fans access to the content they love. With a strong affinity for comedy among our audiences in the UK and Canada, we’re thrilled to deliver a treasure trove of comedic content," stated.
Finally, Rob Bell, Executive Vice President of Digital Distribution and Global Content Strategy at NBCUniversal Global TV Distribution expressed his pleasure in delivering content that he believes will appeal to audiences: “We are delighted to expand upon our partnership with Pluto TV and bring NBCU’s fantastic, much-loved series to their viewers," noted.
