On Demand Group and HIT Entertainment, a leading provider of quality children’s entertainment, today announced a deal to provide a library of HIT Entertainment programming to Cablevision Mexico’s Subscription Video-on-Demand service for the first time.
Under the terms of the deal Cablevision customers will be able to watch their favourite children’s TV programmes such as Pingu™, Mumuhug, Percy the Park Keeper, Untalkative Bunny, Rubbadubbers™, Kipper™, Animal Ark, Shelldon and Anthony Ant - whenever they want with full control to pause, rewind, fast forward and watch again. The catalogue of programmes will be available in Spanish.
Tony Kelly, CEO of On Demand Group, said, "We’re very pleased to bring content from one of the world’s leading suppliers of children’s entertainment to our clients in Mexico. The deal with HIT is further evidence of our successful cross-territory content aggregation strategy and the development of compelling VOD services that we bring to operators. We fully expect to be able to announce further operator contracts in more Latin American regions shortly as further evidence of our rapid growth."
Claudia Scott-Hansen, Senior Vice President, Broadcast, The Americas, HIT Entertainment, said, "We’re thrilled to be working with On Demand Group to broaden the selection of quality children’s programming available for Video-on-Demand in Mexico. These programmes continue to delight children around the world, and we plan to expand the VOD offerings to other regions throughout Latin America for more kids and families to enjoy."
