E4 Spring and Summer schedule packed full of brand-new shows and E4 favourites
E4 is here to make life feel just that little bit easier and more fun, with a range of brand-new digital commissions to run across All 4, YouTube and social media and a linear schedule packed with new series and E4 favourites.
New commissions
We’re easing the disappointment of all those cancelled comedy gigs with a series of comedy shorts from the homes of your favourite comedians with Remote Comedy from The Paddock. We’re talking mental health and mindfulness with the big names in Grime for new online commission, Grime Therapy W/T, and going back to the heart-warming, technology-free basics of letter writing to follow the stories of four extraordinary young people and two well-known faces, with short form online series, Letters in Lockdown.
Navi Lamba, Digital Commissioning Exec for E4 said: “It’s been so brilliant harnessing all the creativity the lockdown has inspired in our indie partners. We’ve commissioned across a number of genres and a mixture of animation and live action, hearing the stories of real people across the country and those of well-known faces in comedy, music and TV and all are tailored to work best for our young audiences across All 4, YouTube and social media.”
PLUS over on ALL 4...
All 7 seasons will available from Monday 1st June.
“In every generation there is a chosen one. She alone will stand against the vampires, the demons and the forces of darkness. She is the slayer.” And soon for the first time ever, she’ll be heading to All 4. That’s right, Buffy the Vampire Slayer will be available to stream on Channel 4’s free VOD service All 4 from 1st June.
Acquired as part of a licensing deal with the Walt Disney Company, all seven seasons of the critically-acclaimed Buffy The Vampire Slayer will be available on All 4 in its entirety.
Nick Lee, Head of Acquisitions at Channel 4 said: “We’re ecstatic that we get to re-live the phenomenal success Buffy The Vampire Slayer has had over the past 23 years. This for many is a long awaited chance to relive this iconic series. For others, it will be a chance to experience it for the very first time, and find out what all the fuss is about!”
