Animal Planet is looking at having a great year with the help of a wide-ranged lineup of big entertainment and 100 percent original content.
The network ranked as the #16 network for men and was in a top-10 network spot for three weeks during the year. The network fared well in ratings with series such as River Monsters and Treehouse Masters and the special Mermaids: The New Evidence.
“We always are exploring new stories that both entertain and challenge how we view the natural world and our place in it,” explains Marjorie Kaplan, Group President Animal Planet and TLC. “Whether captivating audiences season after season with the network’s most-watched series River Monsters, killing it with cuteness with our most buzzed-about, most successful Puppy Bowl ever or delving deep into our humanity with powerful series like Pit Bulls & Parolees, Animal Planet remains committed to offering provocative, entertaining programming while shedding even more light on important global issues.”
