FilmBox was first launched in the Netherlands last May and is currently offered in the basic packages of Canal Digitaal, DELTA, Caiway, Online.nl, Kabelnoord, Plinq, SKP, Trined and Breedband Helmond.<\/p>\n<p>The weekly programming grid for FilmBox features a Movie of the Week on Monday evenings, which presents arthouse movies, international blockbusters and local productions starring Dutch actors. On Wednesday afternoons and weekend mornings, the channel airs movies for children and young adults. On Friday evenings, FilmBox broadcasts three horror movies in succession.<\/p>\n<p>Jeroen Bergman, managing director of Film1 and FilmBox Netherlands, said: \u201cOverwhelming feedback from Dutch TV viewers shows how frustrating it is to interrupt a film several times for a commercial break. It was high time to do something about it. FilmBox is already a huge success on all the platforms that have been broadcasting it since last year and has proven its appeal abroad for many years. The channel is a wonderful addition to our premium proposition Film1, and we are proud of the trust that Ziggo places in us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Raymond van der Vliet, director of programming and content at VodafoneZiggo, added: \u201cWe are very pleased to add FilmBox to our extensive TV offering. FilmBox fits perfectly in our aim to provide customers access to their favorite content with the best quality and viewing experience. The viewing of ad break-free programs and the high-quality films and series of FilmBox helps our customers get a great TV experience.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SPI International\/FilmBox has secured a deal to launch FilmBox on Ziggo in the Netherlands, starting on June 30.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":11983,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[268,910],"class_list":["post-11982","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-spi-internationalfilmbox","tag-ziggo"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>FilmBox Launches on Ziggo in the Netherlands - TVEUROPE<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2022\/06\/29\/filmbox-launches-on-ziggo-in-the-netherlands\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"FilmBox Launches on Ziggo in the Netherlands - TVEUROPE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"SPI International\/FilmBox has secured a deal to launch FilmBox on Ziggo in the Netherlands, starting on June 30.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2022\/06\/29\/filmbox-launches-on-ziggo-in-the-netherlands\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVEUROPE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-06-29T14:49:19+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-06-29T15:59:46+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/07\/filmbox-ziggo-0622.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"535\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"314\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2022\/06\/29\/filmbox-launches-on-ziggo-in-the-netherlands\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2022\/06\/29\/filmbox-launches-on-ziggo-in-the-netherlands\/\",\"name\":\"FilmBox Launches on Ziggo in the Netherlands - TVEUROPE\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2022-06-29T14:49:19+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-06-29T15:59:46+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2022\/06\/29\/filmbox-launches-on-ziggo-in-the-netherlands\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2022\/06\/29\/filmbox-launches-on-ziggo-in-the-netherlands\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2022\/06\/29\/filmbox-launches-on-ziggo-in-the-netherlands\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"FilmBox Launches on Ziggo in the Netherlands\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/\",\"name\":\"TVEUROPE\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
