ABOUT POP
Fans don't sit at the outskirts of pop culture making snarky comments, they live right smack in the middle of it, sharing, creating, and connecting their passions with others. At POP, fans finally have a destination that celebrates the fun of being a fan. Fans aren't even fans anymore they're Gladiators, Tributes, Human Beings and Blockheads. Launching in 2015, POP will give fans a dedicated channel that loves being a fan as much as they do. A channel that respects talent over celebrity. A channel filled with optimism, passion, funny and excitement. A channel that understands the fun doesn't stop when the credits roll it's really just the beginning.
POP is joint venture of CBS Corporation and Lionsgate. The partnership combines CBS's programming, production and marketing assets with Lionsgate's resources in motion pictures, television and digitally delivered content. POP's ownership structure is comprised of the company with the #1 broadcast network and many of the top first-run syndication series ( Entertainment Tonight, The Insider ) and the studio that produces and distributes the blockbuster Hunger Games, Twilight and Divergent franchises and produces such award-winning TV series as Mad Men and Orange is the New Black.
