Hearst Media Production Group (HMPG), a producer and distributor of wildlife programming, has announced the launch of its FAST channel The Jack Hanna Channel on Pluto TV.
The announcement follows HMPG’s recent acquisition of the library of TV series hosted by the legendary wildlife ambassador. The purchase added nearly 400 episodes of the series Jack Hanna’s Wild Countdown and Jack Hanna’s Into the Wild to HMPG’s portfolio of Hanna content.
The Jack Hanna Channel showcases Hanna as he takes viewers on worldwide adventures to discover some of the most fascinating animals.
“Wildlife programming, and Jack himself, are hugely popular with all audience demographics, and The Jack Hanna Channel has proven a powerful audience draw across platforms,” said Andrew Tew, HMPG senior vice president, global licensing & distribution.
“We are excited to partner with HMPG and deliver our audiences 24/7 access to the wonders of The Jack Hanna Channel,” added Scott Reich, SVP Programming, Pluto TV. “This addition to our newly launched Animals + Nature category brings our viewers more of the wildlife programming they love and endless opportunities to learn and explore.”
