History

On July 2, 2010, Jay Switzer (co-founder of Hollywood Suite), was granted 4 category 2 digital specialty channel licences by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), each devoted to various film genres such as action and adventure, and love and romance.

While initially set to launch on November 14, 2011, after several short delays, the channel launched on November 23, 2011[2] using one of the above mentioned licences on EastLink.
