Netflix will start showing traditional broadcast channels next summer
Briefly

Netflix is set to enhance its offerings for French subscribers by integrating broadcast channels from TF1 Group, a prominent commercial broadcaster in France. Beginning in the summer of 2026, subscribers will have access to all five TF1 linear channels and over 30,000 hours of on-demand content, including dramas, reality shows, and live sports. This partnership will leverage changing viewing habits, positioning Netflix to attract and retain subscribers, while TF1 can benefit from expanded advertising opportunities.
"By teaming up with France's leading broadcaster, we will provide French consumers with even more reasons to come to Netflix every day and to stay with us for all their entertainment."
"As viewing habits shift toward on-demand consumption and audience fragmentation increases, this unprecedented alliance will enable our premium content to reach unparalleled audiences and unlock new reach for advertisers within an ecosystem that perfectly aligns the interests of both parties."
