Presto has secured subscription video on demand (SVOD) rights in Australia to a number of NBC Universal comedy and drama programs.
The shows include 30 Rock, Grimm, Parks and Recreation, Mrs Brown's Boys and Bates Motel.
Presto TV will be the exclusive SVOD home to the complete seasons of the hit Irish comedy series Mrs Brown’s Boys starring Brendan O’Carroll.
As part of this deal, Presto has also acquired the SVOD rights to the multi-award winning and nominated NBCU comedy series 30 Rock (seven seasons) and Parks and Recreation (five seasons initially) in addition to critically acclaimed dramas Grimm and Heroes.
All of these series will arrive on Presto and be available to stream on demand beginning today (Monday, August 24).
Presto has also acquired from NBCU the drama series Bates Motel, which will join the service in December.
Presto interim chief executive, Shaun James, said NBCUniversal was a prolific producer of quality popular content.
"We are delighted to be able to offer Presto subscribers some of their most iconic shows including comedies Mrs Brown’s Boys, 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation and drama series such as Heroes, Bates Motel and Grimm,” he said.
“There is also massive interest in the anticipated new drama series Heroes Reborn which will soon premiere on the Seven Network, so there is no better time for viewers to reacquaint themselves with the original four seasons of Heroes which ignited this popular franchise.”
