Insight TV marks its 10-year anniversary at MIPCOM 2025 with the launch of a new 150-hour content slate and a strategic shift that will see the company focus solely on global Pay TV, FAST, and CTV channel operations. The move follows the creation of the World Storytelling Media Group (WSMG), which unites Insight TV and Off the Fence under one umbrella to strengthen the Group’s global reach across channels, distribution, and partnerships.
With channels available on over 185 platforms across 60 countries, in 12 languages, and new expansion announcements on the horizon across major markets, Insight TV continues to grow its global presence as a leading channel operator. The 2025 slate represents the company’s ongoing commitment to delivering high-quality, globally resonant unscripted programming that inspires and entertains audiences worldwide.
The 2025 slate will be the last released under the Insight TV banner, with all future content slates and catalogue distribution merging into Off the Fence’s portfolio. This consolidation allows WSMG to combine Insight TV’s channel expertise with Off the Fence’s award-winning distribution network, delivering premium unscripted content to platforms, networks, and channels globally.
The line-up features a mix of new series and returning favourites that reflect the brand’s evolution and its commitment to premium, globally relevant programming. Highlights include wildlife specials Bucket: The Lion Cub (1×45’, Painted Dog TV) and Cheetah’s Race to Return (1×52’, Painted Dog TV); culinary formats Into the Kitchen (10×44’, ITK Productions Inc.) and The Catch (6×60’, Guru Productions); and adventure titles The Sidecar Guys: The Africa Rally (4×44’, Adventure Alliance Films) and Road Less Travelled S4 (10×50’, SD Media). Other returning highlights include Maximum Foodie S6 (12×30’, SD Media), Step Outside with Paul Burt S1 & S2 (40×22’, Step Outside Productions), and Muscle Cars of Texas S3 (24×30’, Turret Media), while Ride of Your Life with Courtney Hansen S1 & S2 (22×60’, Brenton Productions) and Streetball with Kenny Dobbs (10×22’, Bspoke Media) bring energy and inspiration to the auto restoration and sport genres.
Viktoriia Tkachenko, CEO, Insight TV: ‘As we celebrate 10 years of Insight TV, this slate captures the creative ambition and global energy that define our channels. Going forward, Insight TV will focus fully on expanding its Pay TV, FAST, and CTV presence worldwide, while our sister company Off the Fence leads distribution across the WSMG ecosystem. Together, we’re creating a stronger, more connected platform for partners, producers, and audiences’.
Bo Stehmeier, CEO, Off the Fence: ‘WSMG unites two respected factual brands, Off the Fence and Insight TV, under a single vision for the future of unscripted storytelling. This structure allows each business to play to its strengths: Insight TV as a global channel group and Off the Fence as a world-class distributor. It’s a forward-looking evolution designed to power the next decade of growth’.
