Globo Now Available on Portugal’s TV Vodafone

SÃO PAULO: Brazilian pay-TV channel Globo has launched as part of the basic-television package on TV Vodafone in Portugal.

Globo airs a number of telenovelas seven days a week, including Total Dreamer, which will be launched for Europe at MIPCOM 2016 and for Latin America at NATPE 2017. The network also broadcasts a variety of Brazilian series and movies. In addition to Portugal, Globo currently has five pay-TV channels across all continents, with more than 3 million subscribers.

Ricardo Scalamandré, the director of international business at Globo, commented: “Globo’s addition to TV Vodafone’s platform allows us to offer a broader experience to all Portuguese viewers, who have always shown great recognition for our titles, especially for dramaturgy, which still leads cable-TV ratings in Portugal. The most recent example is the telenovela Total Dreamer, steadily featured on the list of most-viewed programs since its premiere, with an average audience of 100,000 viewers.”
