Bell鈥檚 specialty channels Cooking, OWN, Discovery Science, Motor Trend and Animal Planet will shift to streaming only when the services switch to Rogers next year.

Rogers Communications Inc. says the newly acquired lifestyle brands will be offered on demand and via the streaming service Citytv Plus but will disappear from linear cable packages.

Rogers says other upcoming additions including HGTV, Food Network, Magnolia, Discovery ID and Discovery 鈥� currently held by Corus 鈥� as well as Bravo from Bell will remain as channels available through TV service providers, and will stream on Citytv鈥檚website and CityTV Plus via Amazon Prime Video.

The media giant announced earlier this year that it had scored 鈥渕ilestone鈥� multi-year deals with NBCUniversal and Warner Bros. Discovery for the Canadian rights to several lifestyle brands held by Corus Entertainment and Bell Media.

Rogers says its OLN cable channel will be rebranded Bravo this fall, and the U.S. network will launch with new seasons of 鈥淭he Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,鈥� 鈥淭he Real Housewives of New York City,鈥� 鈥淏elow Deck Sailing Yacht,鈥� 鈥淭he Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,鈥� 鈥淪outhern Charm鈥� and 鈥淭he Real Housewives of Potomac.鈥�

Bravo will be available through TV service providers, on CityTV鈥檚 website and on the streaming service CityTV Plus via Amazon Prime Video.

Earlier this month, Corus Entertainment Inc. filed a complaint with Canada鈥檚 broadcasting regulator alleging Rogers was 鈥渆ngaging in predatory behaviour鈥� to undercut Canadian competitors through rights deals to foreign programming.
