Cinedigm (NASDAQ: CIDM) announced today that the Company’s
popular The Bob Ross Channel is now available on Redbox’s Free Live
TV streaming platform. Cinedigm already has streaming channels
Comedy Dynamics, CONtv, Docurama and Dove Channel available on Free
Live TV.
Long-established as America’s destination for entertainment,
Redbox is once again providing their users with even more value,
choice and convenience with Redbox Free Live TV. The new service is
curated to the interests of the broad Redbox audience, offering a
wide-range of popular movies and television to enjoy.
“Since its launch in March, The Bob Ross Channel has been
quickly embraced by streaming viewers," said Tony Huidor,
Cinedigm’s General Manager of Digital Networks. “We are excited
that Redbox will introduce Bob Ross’ legacy to many new viewers and
provide long-time fans a means to access Bob Ross on a free
ad-supported basis.”
“Bob Ross left an incredible legacy as an artist and was an
inspiration for millions of people around the world,” said Laura
Florence, Director, Content Partnerships for Redbox. “We’re
thrilled to add the channel to our service and continue delighting
fans and giving voice to Bob Ross for a new generation to discover
him.”
The Bob Ross Channel showcases memorable moments and incredible
paintings from the long-running public television series, featuring
approximately 380 classic episodes and delivering hours of quality
entertainment that is enjoyable for the whole family. As part of
Cinedigm’s agreement with Bob Ross, Inc., Cinedigm has produced and
distributed special messages of support for public television on
the channel, as well as spots highlighting official Bob Ross
painting products, and Bob Ross Certified Instructors.
Cinedigm continues to focus on bringing well-established brands
and film & television content from leading content owners into
the growing, free ad-supported television marketplace.
Opportunities for premium content remain strong within the OTT
ad-supported space as traditional cable and satellite services
continue to lose subscribers.
