LOS
ANGELES, Dec. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/
-- Cineverse (NASDAQ: CNVS), a next-gen entertainment
studio, is bringing its top-performing "Dog Whisperer" channel to
Samsung TV Plus, making the iconic animal series available to a
wider audience on the popular free, ad-supported television (FAST)
and video on demand (AVOD) service.
Cineverse has held the global rights to Dog Whisperer with
Cesar Millan since August 2023. This has included the distribution
of all nine seasons and 160 episodes of the popular pet dog series
starring Cesar Millan across
multiple platforms and the launch of the "Dog Whisperer" FAST
channel. Since "Dog Whisperer" debuted on Cineverse in January 2024, the channel has seen nine months of
consecutive growth, 204 million minutes viewed and a 559%
consumption increase on all platforms.
The multi-year licensing deal expands Cineverse's partnership
with Samsung TV Plus, and adds to the already available suite of
channels which include The Bob Ross Channel, Comedy Dynamics, Dove
Channel, Midnight Pulp and RetroCrush.
"Collaborating with Samsung to bring our highly successful 'Dog
Whisperer' channel to Samsung TV Plus made complete sense given how
much we value our partnership," said Cineverse VP Partnerships
Alexandra Viglione. "The distinguished series already has a massive
global fan base, and we are making it available to even larger CTV
audiences desired by advertisers as we broaden the channel's
distribution with Samsung."
Dog Whisperer with Cesar
Millan debuted in 2004 and moved into primetime the
next year on the National Geographic Channel, where it earned the
status of National Geographic's highest-rated series for six years.
The two-time Emmy-nominated series won the People's Choice Award
for Favorite Animal Show in 2008 and aired in over 80 countries
across the world.
In 2025, the "Dog Whisperer" channel will feature the following
stunts: "Fetch Fridays" weekly on Fridays, "New Year, New Dog" in
honor of the New Year, "Pup, Pup, Hike" for the Super Bowl and
"Puppy Love" for Valentine's Day.
