Discovery Channel, the #1 cable network among Men 25-54, excluding news and sports, has greenlit second seasons of five successful series that debuted in 2024.
Set to return this year, Expedition Files, Hustlers Gamblers Crooks, In the Eye of the Storm, The Last Woodsmen and Mud Madness were each top three cable series among Men 25-54 in their respective timeslots, excluding news and sports, and each reached at least 8.5 million viewers. Led by global adventurer Josh Gates, Expedition Files became the network’s highest rated freshman series of 2024. These unscripted shows expand Discovery’s scope by transporting viewers into real, high-stakes environments with authentic characters who stop at nothing to explore new spaces and achieve their dreams.
“With these five series, Discovery Channel discovered new worlds, offering magnetic characters in epic settings that resonated with viewers,” said Howard Lee, Chief Creative Officer of US Networks and President of Discovery Networks. “This success reinforces our commitment to finding interesting subcultures and fascinating people who have extraordinary stories to tell.”
