Freeform is an American basic cable channel owned by Walt Disney Television, a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. The channel primarily broadcasts programming aimed at teenagers and young adults, with some programming skewing towards young women in the 14–34 age range. Its programming includes original series, feature films, and made-for-TV original movies.

History

Freeform was originally launched on April 29, 1977, as The Family Channel. It was founded by Pat Robertson and initially focused on religious programming. In 1998, the channel was sold to Fox Kids Worldwide, a joint venture between News Corporation and Haim Saban, and was rebranded as Fox Family Channel. In 2001, it was acquired by The Walt Disney Company and rebranded as ABC Family. On January 12, 2016, the channel was rebranded as Freeform to better reflect its target audience and programming focus.

Programming

Freeform's programming includes a mix of original series, feature films, and acquired series. Some of its most popular original series include Pretty Little Liars, The Fosters, and Shadowhunters. The channel also airs a variety of movies, including both theatrical releases and made-for-TV films.
