Freeform Sets Bingeable Launch for Beyond

NEW YORK: Freeform will make the entire first season of its new series Beyond available for viewing on digital platforms at the same time as the premiere episode debuts on the channel on January 2.

On January 2, Freeform launches the show with a two-hour linear programming event. Beyond will simultaneously be available to watch in its entirety on multiple digital platforms, including the Freeform app, Freeform.com, On Demand and Hulu.

“The premiere of Beyond marks an important milestone in the history of Freeform, nearly a year since our rebrand,” said Tom Ascheim, the president of Freeform. “One of the promises we made to our audience at the time was to create content they love and to make that content easily accessible. Beyond helps us live up to both promises. In the same way we modernized our brand, we are modernizing how we bring our shows to our audience. Beyond is our first, and definitely not our last, ‘binge-from-the-start’ show.”

The drama focuses on a young man who wakes from a 12-year coma to discover he has new abilities. It hails from Imperative Entertainment and Automatik.
