Pluto TV adds two channels from A+E Networks UK

Paramount-owned AVOD service PlutoTV has announced the addition of two new channels from A+E Networks UK.

The two channels, Inside Crime UK and Mystery TV, are the first themed channels from A+E Networks to launch on Pluto TV in the UK. They take Pluto’s offering to more than 1,000 channels globally. 

Inside Crime UK, as its title would suggest, presents programming around true crime including Britain’s Darkest Taboos and Crimes that Shook Britain. Mystery TV meanwhile is based around the supernatural with programming such as Weird or What and Conspiracy Files Unsealed.

Dan Fahy, SVP streaming, UK, at Paramount, said: “I am delighted to welcome A+E Networks UK as our most recent content partner. Their programme roster offers plenty of scope to create compelling channels for Pluto TV viewers in the UK. Content partners continue to choose Pluto TV for its sophisticated user platform – developed over years as the leader in this space  together with our unrivalled reach, monetisation model and brand awareness.”

Julie Mitchelmore, VP, digital at A+E Networks UK, said: “We’re incredibly excited to be bringing our slate of top-quality content to Pluto TV. The growth of true crime and mystery programming continues to go from strength to strength. This partnership provides a great opportunity to maximize our catalogue of evergreen programming for new digital audiences who can stream A+E Network UK’s shows anytime, anywhere.”
