Rakuten TV Acquires More Family Content

Streaming platform Rakuten TV has strengthened its children and family offering with the launch of two new channels.

The video-on-demand service added the LEGO® channel in the UK and Planeta Junior TV in Spain as part of its free, ad-supported streaming television (FAST) channel expansion.

These new channels add to the high-quality content available on the platform for the whole family to enjoy together, from films, TV shows and animations, to educational content, games and tutorials to unleash children's creativity. Kids and Family content on Rakuten TV also includes the platform's own curated channel, Family - Rakuten TV, featuring popular TV shows such as 'Wallace and Gromit' and 'Shaun the Sheep', and further branded channels including Brat TV, Cool School, DuckTV and Happykids. The company anticipates additions to be rolled out in this category in the coming weeks.
 
The LEGO® channel is available now in the UK, featuring hours of content varying in genres and animation styles, and series based on some of the most popular LEGO® properties and special franchises. Fans can also discover content that will introduce them to the world of LEGO® designers and builders, among much more.
 
Planeta Junior TV is a channel by DeAPlaneta, a reference distributor in the Spanish industry. The channel is now available in Spain. Popular features include 'Maya The Bee', 'Heidi', 'Pucca', 'Mutant Busters', and 'Sandra The Fairytale Detective'.
