Comcast Adds LGBTQ+ Streaming Network Revry to Roster

Revry, the first global LGBTQ+ streaming network, has made a deal with Comcast that sees it being added to the Xfinity X1 service later this month.

Revry offers a mix of films, series, music, podcasts and originals, and the network’s availability on X1 will bolster its reach to over 50 million viewers across multiple platforms.

When the network launches, X1 customers will be able to subscribe to the service by saying “Revry” into their X1 voice remote. Viewers can also say “Pride” or “LGBTQ” to access X1’s broader LGBTQ+ Film and TV on-demand destination, the first in-home entertainment experience that features a complete library of LGBTQ+ stories, entertainment and content.

Xfinity X1 customers will be able to add Revry to their service for $6.99 per month.

“Launching on X1 will be a game changer and allow Revry to bring more authentic LGBTQ+ stories and content to millions more homes in the U.S.,” said Revry CEO Damian Pelliccione. “Our dream of becoming easily accessible to people who need to hear these stories from around the world is one step closer to becoming a reality!”

“We’re excited Xfinity X1 customers will soon be able to enjoy Revry Originals like Room to Grow and Queens of Kings starring Drag Race winner Aquaria, plus movies, shorts, music and podcasts all within the ease of the X1 experience,” said Jean-Claire Fitschen, executive director of multicultural consumer services at Comcast Cable. “Revry’s expansive offering includes stories of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender experience that our customers will love and greatly complement our current collection of programming for this audience.”
