Free FilmRise Content Lands on Sling TV

FilmRise has partnered with Sling TV to add free AVOD content from its extensive library to the streaming service.

Through the deal, Sling Orange and/or Sling Blue subscribers will automatically see FilmRise available as a channel in their Sling TV channel guide. Sling users on Roku devices, meanwhile, can access FilmRise content for free by opening the Sling app and selecting “browse as guest.”

Among the FilmRise titles made available on the service are such TV series as Forensic Files, Hell’s Kitchen, Unsolved Mysteries, 3rd Rock from the Sun and Kitchen Nightmares; and a roster of films that includes Bernie, The Illusionist, movies from the Ernest franchise and more.

Danny Fisher of FilmRise said: “We are excited to be one of the first AVOD partners with Sling TV. Sling provides consumers with their favorite TV programming and now, with this new offering, they can further their audience’s options without viewers’ payment commitment. It’s a win-win for all.”
