SAMSUNG has added three free channels for millions of TV owners.
The company’s free streaming service, Samsung TV Plus, just got a major update.
Toy giant Mattel has partnered with Samsung to add some kids channels to TV Plus.
Samsung TV Plus comes installed as standard on the company’s televisions – as well as on its smartphones.
The service currently offers more than 350 live channels completely free of charge, but with commercials.
And now you can enjoy Barbie and Friends, How Wheels Action and Mattel Jr.
“We always aim to engage our fans in new ways with their favorite Mattel characters and stories,” said head of Mattel TV Michelle Mendelovitz.
“We are pleased to partner with Samsung TV Plus to advance Mattel’s content strategy and provide audiences with a premium viewing experience.”
It’s a perfect selection for parents who can give their kids plenty of new shows to watch without paying a dime.
See how Samsung describes the new channels:
- Barbie & Friends: Viewers can join Barbie and her best doll friends as fashion, friendship and exciting adventures take center stage
- How Wheels Action: Featuring thrilling races through the world of Hot Wheels, epic battles with He-Man and Skeletor, and enchanting railroad adventures with Thomas and friends
- Mattel Jr.: A child’s passport to a world of enchantment, education and endless fun with Kipper the dog, adorable Pingu the penguin and all the beloved Fisher-Price characters
All channels are ad-supported, so you don’t need to pay any upfront fees or subscription costs.
The new channels are on air starting today.
