The three channels are available in Qatar via Ooredoo tv & Mozaic TV.
Sanjay Raina, general manager and vice-president of Fox Networks Group, said the move was in line with the network's mission “as the torchbearer of Pay TV content distribution”.
“With the launch of these channels, we now have the largest and most diverse portfolio of Pay TV channels among our peers. Our presence across all DTH and IPTV platforms gives our brands a reach that is second to none among the estimated 4mn and growing Pay TV households in the region,” he said. “These sharply defined TV brands fulfil a void that has been identified by our partner affiliates. And they are backed by the high level of content-curation and credibility that Fox-branded Pay TV channels are known for.”
Describing the positioning of the new channels, Raina indicated that Fox Family Movies HD has been specially designed to feature “some of the greatest and beloved family films that are absolutely safe for children and fun for the whole family”, while Fox Action Movies HD showcases “some of the biggest, most popular and most iconic” action features from around the world. Meanwhile, FX HD “breaks new ground with high-quality drama series, edgy movies and unconventional series, packaged and presented in a sharp style that is in tune with mostly male audiences in the region”, it was observed.
