My5 viewers can now access a selection of BLAZE content that will be updated monthly. The BLAZE content offered on My5 will include hit A+E Networks UK shows such as <em>Swamp People<\/em>, <em>Pawn Stars<\/em>, <em>Forged in Fire<\/em>, <em>Billy the Exterminator <\/em>and <em>Hardcore Pawn<\/em>. The content is available on the My5 website, as well as on iOS and Android devices and Samsung smart TVs, with additional platforms to follow shortly.<\/p>\n<p>James Tatam, the VP of commercial, operations and strategic services at Channel 5, commented: \u201cThis exciting next phase in the evolution of My5 builds on our recent successes in offering exclusive box-set content for the platform. We\u2019re excited to partner with A+E Networks UK; their high-quality programming from around the world broadens the appeal of My5 and we look forward to announcing further content deals in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Heather Jones, the U.K. general manager at A+E Networks, said: \u201cIt is exciting to be working in partnership with Channel 5 to enable BLAZE to reach an even wider audience through the My5 digital platform. Since its U.K. launch last year, BLAZE is proving to be a great addition to the A+E Networks portfolio and today\u2019s announcement is another key development in our ambitions for the brand.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Channel 5 has inked a digital distribution deal with A+E Networks UK that brings content from the free-to-air entertainment channel BLAZE to its VOD service My5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":477,"featured_media":7891,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[498,770,191,193],"class_list":["post-7890","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-ae-networks-uk","tag-blaze","tag-channel-5","tag-my5"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>My5 Now Offering Content from BLAZE Channel - 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\/2017\/09\/05\/my5-now-offering-content-from-blaze-channel\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"My5 Now Offering Content from BLAZE Channel - TVEUROPE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Channel 5 has inked a digital distribution deal with A+E Networks UK that brings content from the free-to-air entertainment channel BLAZE to its VOD service My5.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2017\/09\/05\/my5-now-offering-content-from-blaze-channel\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVEUROPE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2017-09-05T16:10:09+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2017-09-05T16:32:11+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/07\/PawnStarsUK_th.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"500\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"281\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\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\/2017\/09\/05\/my5-now-offering-content-from-blaze-channel\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2017\/09\/05\/my5-now-offering-content-from-blaze-channel\/\",\"name\":\"My5 Now Offering Content from BLAZE Channel - TVEUROPE\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2017-09-05T16:10:09+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2017-09-05T16:32:11+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2017\/09\/05\/my5-now-offering-content-from-blaze-channel\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2017\/09\/05\/my5-now-offering-content-from-blaze-channel\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2017\/09\/05\/my5-now-offering-content-from-blaze-channel\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"My5 Now Offering Content from BLAZE Channel\"}]},{\"@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\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\",\"name\":\"Sara Alessi\",\"description\":\"Sara Alessi is the associate editor of World Screen.
