SBS and VICE Team Up to Launch New Free-to-Air TV Channel VICELAND Next Month

So. You've watched all the documentaries on VICE's YouTube channel. You're up to your second viewing up just about everything on SBS's Food Network. You definitely don't want to watch A Current Affair. What's a news-hungry millennial to do? In answer to your free-to-air TV dreams, SBS and VICE are teaming up to create not only a new show, but a whole goddamn TV channel for your viewing pleasure.

The new channel was announced earlier this year, but they've just let slip that it will launch at 4pm on Tuesday, November 15, replacing SBS 2. It will be an extension of VICE's online TV channel VICELAND, and will be called by the same name. So far details about programming are skint, but the new channel will feature SBS 2's news, sport and entertainment programs, as well as the best stuff from VICELAND. VICELAND launched online earlier this year with a collection of Spike Jonze-produced docos.

Apparently more details will be released in the next few weeks. Until then, SBS is directing would-be viewers to make a free call to 1800 321 511. We don't know exactly why — but it can't hurt to give it a go.

SBS VICELAND will launch at 4pm on Tuesday, November 15.
