Pay-TV operator OSN will launch TLC HD the new channel from Discovery Networks International across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) on 24 March.
The channel brings with it programming from OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network along with reality entertainment covering genres such as weddings, fashion, food, family and alternate lifestyles.
It joins a further five Discovery channels on the OSN bouquet: Discovery Channel HD, Discovery Science HD, Animal Planet HD, Discovery World and Investigation Discovery.
The launch of TLC HD is hugely exciting for us and marks a key moment in our continuing investment in the Middle East and partnership with OSN, said James Gibbons, SVP and country Manager, Discovery Networks CEEMEA.
There is clearly a gap in the market for a channel like TLC the ultimate destination for the best in female-skewed, entertaining and inspirational content and its success globally is proof of how well the content works across cultures. We are thrilled to present TLC HD to the market, and are sure our OSN viewers will love the channel when it launches this month.
Discovery Networks has been an integral part of OSNs growth story, enabling us to provide viewers with world class exclusive content found nowhere else. TLC HD will further complement our existing lifestyle channels bringing even more premium entertainment choices for viewers, said David Butorac, CEO, OSN.
We began 2014 with a bang launching four new channels in just two months. It has always been our endeavour to bring OSN viewers the best content from across the world first, and we will continue to grow the unrivalled content we offer viewers with an unmatched television viewing experience.
