The Roku Channel is planning to roll out its Roku Originals launch lineup, which features 30 titles, on May 20, in celebration of Streaming Day.
The roster of Roku Originals, which features the acquired Quibi lineup, includes scripted series such as
Die Hart,
Blackballed and
Punk’d and
Chrissy’s Court.
Roku is partnering with Laugh Out Loud, the multiplatform comedy brand founded by Kevin Hart, to bring LOL! Network, a linear channel featuring a curated collection of the boldest voices in comedy, to The Roku Channel. It will join The Roku Channel’s lineup of more than 35 live linear streaming channels.
You Ain’t Got These.
More Originals are expected to roll out on The Roku Channel later this year. The company revealed last month that it would be rebranding the 75 Quibi shows and documentaries it had acquired from the shut down streamer as Roku Originals.
“As The Roku Channel grows, we will continue to be even more creative and expansive in sourcing great content that will perform well in a free, advertising-supported model, while delivering an array of incredible, quality entertainment for our users to enjoy,” Sweta Patel, Roku’s VP of engagement growth marketing, said in a statement.
The company is also partnering with Kevin Hart’s multi-platform comedy brand Laugh Out Loud to bring linear channel LOL! Network to The Roku Channel.
