BBC Studios announced that its CBeebies channel will soon make a collection of its acclaimed kids programming, including hit titles such as Hey Duggee, Sarah & Duck and Yakka Dee, available for Comcast’s Xfinity TV customers to enjoy through Xfinity On Demand.
CBeebies recently launched its live channel as part of the Xfinity TV Latino package, and today’s announcement gives these customers more flexibility to enjoy the programming on their terms. The On Demand programming will launch on July 8, 2019 to coincide with the start of Xfinity Kids Week, a week-long event where a selection of kids programming, including many Spanish-language choices, from popular networks will be made available to all Xfinity TV customers for free.
“Comcast is an excellent partner to help bring our most acclaimed children’s content to more U.S. Hispanic audiences. The award-winning CBeebies channel and its programs encourage the positive development of children in a secure environment. This partnership will enable us to expand this proposition and reach more families in the United States,” said James Wildbore, BBC Studios’ SVP & general manager for Latin America and U.S. Hispanic.
During Kids Week, all Xfinity TV customers will be able to access and sample the below award-winning CBeebies titles. X1 customers can quickly find the programming by saying CBeebies On Demand into their voice remote, or by searching for the show by name.
