Corus launches new French-language streaming platform ‘Vivéo’

Corus Entertainment has launched new French-language streaming platform, Vivéo.

Available through Prime Video Add-on Subscriptions in Canada, Vivéo is operating on an ad-supported hybrid model, offering a catalogue of more than 200 series and films at a competitive price of $4.99 per month.

“This platform allows us to move beyond traditional broadcasting to give French Canadians a new way to access stories that resonate with them,” said Julie Godon, Head of French specialty networks at Corus. “By following the evolving viewing habits, we are making our French-language content available anytime, anywhere, and in a simple and user-friendly technological environment.”

The platform’s catalogue will be enriched on a regular basis, including new original productions from Historia and Séries Plus that will be available to stream the day after their television broadcast. The platform will also feature the Adult Swim universe with titles like Rick and Morty, Smiling Friends, Common Side Effects, and Robot Chicken; international drama series, documentaries and lifestyle programming like Nightsleeper, Murder in a Small Town, Catch Me a Killer, Rust Valley Restorers, American Pickers, Big Food Bucket List, Fire Masters and Rock Solid Builds; and shows from the Warner Bros. Animation and DC animated universe, including Teen Titans Go! and DC Super Hero Girls, along with timeless classics like Looney Tunes Cartoons and Animaniacs.

Corus says Vivéo plans to expand its distribution by partnering with additional services in the coming months, with the goal of becoming a leading destination for French-language content.
