TLC Southeast Asia Goes for Full Season of The Kings

TLC Southeast Asia has picked up a full season of The Kings prior to the reality series’ pilot premiere.

The Kings follows the story of transgender woman Angelina Mead King and her model-host wife Joey Mead King. The series will premiere on Thursday, June 22, at 9 p.m. on TLC Philippines and on TLC Southeast Asia’s Facebook page globally at 9:05 p.m. on the same night.

“We are very honored and fortunate to have been given this rare opportunity to share this unique story with the Philippines, and with the rest of the world, live, as part of our partnership with Facebook,” said Rohit Tharani, the director of content curation at Discovery Southeast Asia. “With The Kings, TLC Southeast Asia has gone out of its way to break new ground, every conceivable genre and there are no boundaries or labels with this series. With the full season pickup commissioned ahead of the pilot premiere, we are showing our commitment to continue taking risks, and be experimental with the content we are creating.”
