Fox-owned streamer Tubi is adding more than 900 TV series and films to its UK offering, with shows from franchises such as Farmer Wants a Wife and Storage Wars also becoming available.
The Fremantle deal gave Tubi UK access to Farmer Wants a Wife in Australia, Farming for Love in Canada, Storage Wars: Northern Treasures, Black Gold, Monster Garage, Motor City Motors and Verminators.
Other agreements were made with 800 Pound Gorilla Media, True Crime UK, Fremantle and Next Up.
Titles leading Tooby’s 800lb Gorilla journey include Ivo Graham: Live from the Bloomsbury Theater and Paddy Young: Hungry, Horny, Scared; Tom Allen: Totally Alive and Car Park.
True Crime UK, owned by CBS UK affiliate AMC Networks, has sold rights to shows including The Citizen Detective, Evidence of Evil and Murder: First on Scene, while Next Up has agreed deals for Milton Jones: Milton the Impossible, Stuart Francis: Pun Gent and Ed Byrne: Another Class, among others.
Tubi launched in the UK in July 2024 and now offers over 75,000 movies and TV episodes for free. The company also launched a range of FAST channels late last year.
Ross Appleton, general manager of Tubi UK, said the latest acquisitions “reflect the strategic momentum” the streamer has built in the UK.
He added: “As Europe’s leading AVOD platform for catalog growth, this investment underscores our ongoing commitment to delivering exceptional content to fandoms and strengthens our long-term market growth strategy.”
