Bell含羞草研究社檚 specialty channels Cooking, OWN, Discovery Science, Motor Trend and Animal Planet will shift to streaming only when the services switch to Rogers next year.

Rogers Communications Inc. says the newly acquired lifestyle brands will be offered on demand and via the streaming service Citytv Plus but will disappear from linear cable packages.

Rogers says other upcoming additions including HGTV, Food Network, Magnolia, Discovery ID and Discovery 含羞草研究社 currently held by Corus 含羞草研究社 as well as Bravo from Bell will remain as channels available through TV service providers, and will stream on Citytv含羞草研究社檚website and CityTV Plus via Amazon Prime Video.

The media giant announced earlier this year that it had scored 含羞草研究社渕ilestone含羞草研究社 multi-year deals with NBCUniversal and Warner Bros. Discovery for the Canadian rights to several lifestyle brands held by Corus Entertainment and Bell Media.

Rogers says its OLN cable channel will be rebranded Bravo this fall, and the U.S. network will launch with new seasons of 含羞草研究社淭he Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,含羞草研究社 含羞草研究社淭he Real Housewives of New York City,含羞草研究社 含羞草研究社淏elow Deck Sailing Yacht,含羞草研究社 含羞草研究社淭he Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,含羞草研究社 含羞草研究社淪outhern Charm含羞草研究社 and 含羞草研究社淭he Real Housewives of Potomac.含羞草研究社

Bravo will be available through TV service providers, on CityTV含羞草研究社檚 website and on the streaming service CityTV Plus via Amazon Prime Video.
