SBS2 is to be no longer from late 2016, with the station to be replaced by VICELAND. The move comes as part of a mass scale expansion by Vice Media to more than 50 countries worldwide; the channel will also expand to New Zealand via Sky TV.
It’ll be SBS’ second branded partnership - the first being with Scripps for SBS Food Network. No word yet on which SBS2 programmes will continue over, though I’d guess The Feed would be sticking around in some form or another.
