Disney and Charter Strike Deal to Add Hulu, Restore Eight Cable Networks to Spectrum Lineup
Disney and Charter have expanded their carriage deal, adding ad-supported Hulu to Spectrum packages and restoring 8 Disney cable networks
Charter had previously dropped the outlets in 2023 after complaining that Disney and other traditional media conglomerates were putting most of their content dollars into new streaming services, leaving customers paying for networks with less original fare. “With the addition of Hulu and the return of our full portfolio of channels, we’re pleased to expand and extend our agreement with Charter – delivering the most robust and valuable combination of linear and streaming entertainment for years to come,” said Sean Breen, executive vice president, Disney Platform Distribution, in a statement. “This agreement reflects our continued focus on leaning into the strength of Disney’s best-in-class programming across every genre and platform – and our shared commitment with Charter to building innovative, consumer-focused distribution models that drive value across the board.”
