Discovery, Astro Ink Co-Pro Deal

Discovery and Astro are teaming up to co-produce a new travel lifestyle series, Travel for Love.

The first co-pro between the two companies is part of a three-year content agreement and an extension of their distribution partnership. The show will air this year on TLC and Astro’s Hello channel. The eight-part series, which kicks off in the East Malaysian state of Sarawak, features influencers traveling across the region and looking for love.

“Powering people’s passions is part of our global DNA,” said Anna Pak Burdin, Discovery’s VP and general manager for Southeast Asia. “We aim to fuel the interests of our superfans, on television screens and beyond. With this new series, we are marrying two passion points—relationships and travel—into a new format that not only captures the excitement for travel but also reveals the subtle nuances that are unique to Asian culture. We’re very excited to embark on this travelogue with a twist, together with our long-standing partner Astro in Malaysia.”
