Family Channel has expanded its already close relationship with Disney, and will run Disney Channel programs and movies through a new broadband player on its family.ca site. The new player and programming — including Hannah Montana and The Suite Life on Deck and Disney movies — are set to debut Jan. 30.
‘The extension of our deal with Disney is a significant achievement for our business as it will enable Family to offer the Disney programming experience to our audience on all relevant platforms — linear, on-emand and now online,’ said Joe Tedesco, VP and GM of Family Channel and Playhouse Disney.
New content will be added every week and will include Family’s homemade series.
