YouTube TV Bringing Back Univision Channels After Two-Month Blackout
YouTube TV bringing back Univision channels after a two-month blackout has delighted Spanish-language viewers across the U.S. Fans lost access to Univision, Unimás, TUDN, and Galavisión in late September due to contract disputes, but a new agreement with TelevisaUnivision restores these channels. Subscribers can now enjoy their favorite shows, sports, and news without interruption.
Why Did YouTube TV Remove Univision Channels?
The two-month blackout happened after negotiations between YouTube TV and TelevisaUnivision hit a roadblock. Subscribers received sudden notices that Spanish-language channels would be removed. Contract terms, licensing fees, and distribution rights were at the core of the dispute. This move caused frustration among users who rely on Univision for daily programming and live sports coverage.
When Will Univision Channels Return on YouTube TV?
Under the new deal, YouTube TV subscribers can expect Univision channels to return soon. The restored lineup includes Univision, Unimás, TUDN, and Galavisión. These channels will be available on both the Base plan and the Spanish add-on package. Additionally, TelevisaUnivision’s streaming service Vix will launch on YouTube Primetime Channels, expanding content accessibility for U.S. and Mexican audiences.
How YouTube TV and TelevisaUnivision Plan to Expand Content
Beyond restoring channels, YouTube TV and TelevisaUnivision aim to reach a broader audience. New initiatives include showcasing popular content on YouTube’s free platform, boosting exposure for Spanish-language programs. The partnership also signals YouTube Primetime Channels’ first expansion into Mexico, offering more entertainment choices to bilingual and international viewers.
