Sesame Workshop, HIT Entertainment and Nelvana Enterprises are now set to see their shows stream on the new YOU Kids On Demand subscription service that’s set to launch in China later this year.
YOU Kids is part of YOU On Demand, currently a leading multi-platform entertainment and VOD company in China that streams both Hollywood and Chinese-produced titles. The company already has deals in place for its main on-demand service with Disney Media Distribution, Paramount, Warner Bros. and NBC Universal.
Making television for children under the age of five comes with great responsibility, Persona said, which is why the creative team behind the show is feeling chuffed about the episodes. Love Every Moment, which airs Saturday at 8:45 a.m., deals with same-sex marriage, while I Wanna Wear Sunday at 11:45 a.m. has the cast of characters on the music-centric show attending a pride festival. “Treehouse has never had any sort of LGBTQ+focused episodes at all, so this is a huge first for them,” Persona, who plays the title character, told the Times Colonist. “We’re very honoured to have their trust to be able to tell their stories.”
Paramount+ finally made its launch on Thursday.
In addition to the likes of Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, viewers will be able to opt for CBS s rebranded streaming service.
With Hollywood blockbusters like The Godfather and Mission Impossible to popular TV series like Blue Bloods and classic throwbacks like Frasier, the newest streaming service offers an eclectic mix of programming.
Here’s a look at what other TV shows and movies Paramount+ has to offer.
