Audience (TV network)

Audience Network (also known as Audience from 2016 until 2020)[1] was an American pay television channel that was owned by AT&T. It featured a mix of original and acquired series, specials, and feature films. The network operated as a commercial-free service and broadcast its programming without editing for content. It was originally exclusive to DirecTV, though it was also added to AT&T U-verse after AT&T's 2015 acquisition of DirecTV. It was also made available on later AT&T streaming efforts, including AT&T TV and AT&T Watch TV, a lower-cost option available to AT&T Mobility customers.[2] As of 2019, the channel had a subscription base of 26 million.[3] The channel ceased operations on May 22, 2020.
