TV5MONDE Delivers Two New Channels Via Charter in the U.S.

LOS ANGELES: TV5MONDE USA has extended its carriage pact with Charter Communications to include two new channel launches: TiVi5MONDE Kids and TV5MONDE Info.

TiVi5MONDE Kids is America’s first and only French-language channel devoted solely to children’s programming. The channel is programmed to appeal to children and youth audiences ages 4 to 12. TV5MONDE Info brings viewers the latest newscasts and current affairs shows produced by TV5MONDE, as well as national newscasts produced by partner channels from France, Belgium, Switzerland and Canada.

The new channel launches come on the heels of the successful rollout of TV5MONDE HD nationwide. Charter customers in select markets will now have access to three HD channels offering high-quality French-language programming.

“Charter continues to expand on our wide array of diverse quality content that appeals to adults and children. We are pleased to bring TV5MONDE Info and TiVi5MONDE Kids to our customers in these communities, and more will follow,” said Allan Singer, Charter's senior VP of programming.
 
“Based on the recent successful launch of TV5MONDE USA on Charter Communications, we are very excited about the opportunity to expand our HD offerings on Charter and bring a complete and original lineup of French language television in HD,” added Jean-Luc Cronel, CEO of TV5MONDE USA.
