As the go-to destination for lifestyle and unscripted programming for buyers worldwide, Corus Studios announced additional sales to U.S. streaming service Hulu, and multiple deals overseas this fall.
Corus Studios' incredible momentum this past twelve months has continued into the fall, said Lisa Godfrey, Senior Vice President of Original Content and Corus Studios. Our success reflects our commitment to grow our multi-season catalogue and produce high quality content that appeals globally.
In its fourth fiscal quarter, Corus Studios expanded its partnership with Hulu in the U.S., adding even more titles of its marquee content to Hulu's lineup. These include a pre-sale of gold-hunting series Deadman's Curse (8 60), currently slated to make its worldwide premiere on HISTORY in Canada come 2022.

Corus Studios content continues to resonate in international markets with over 70 hours of content already sold in Q1. Recent sales include new seasons pickups of unscripted series Rust Valley Restorers (Season 3 - 12 60), Salvage Kings (Season 2 - 10 60) and Backroad Truckers (Season 1- 8 60) to Foxtel in Australia. Israel's Talit Communications returns for more home renovation content securing Making It Home with Kortney & Kenny (10 60), Worst to First (10 60) and the third season of Island of Bryan (10 60).
