ZDF Enterprises Ties Up with WATCHEVER

BERLIN/MAINZ: ZDF Enterprises has signed a two-year contract with the SVOD platform WATCHEVER for on-demand streaming of titles from its catalogue.

This brings to the service the detective series Kriminaldauerdienst (KDD), as well as the Danish/Swedish/German detective show Bron/Broen (The Bridge) and the historical drama Krupp: Ein deutsche Familie (Krupp: A Family Between War and Peace). For the younger set, the offerings include H20: Just Add Water, seasons one through three of Dance Academy and Mako Mermaids.

“We are delighted about the collaboration with innovative partners such as WATCHEVER; we have many popular films and series in our extensive portfolio, offering the best prerequisites for success in the German SVOD market,” said Alexander Coridass, the president and CEO at ZDF Enterprises.

Stefan Schulz, the managing director of WATCHEVER, added: “ZDF Enterprises has a large number of high quality German and international productions loved by the German public. The formats and content in this long-term deal are perfect for our product range. Our users can load the content at any time and even on up to three devices at once. While the parents are following Crime:Stories by bestselling author Ferdinand von Schirach and the celebrated producer Oliver Berben on their smart TV, the children can be watching Dance Academy, for example, on their tablet or laptop.”
