A+E Global Media has announced the launch of two new FAST channels for German-language audiences across Germany, Switzerland and Austria, anchored by the hit series Ax Men and Swamp People.

Built as dedicated, single-title FAST channels, both launches offer viewers round-the-clock access to full-series programming in German, expanding A+E Global Media’s FAST footprint in the DACH region and extending the reach of two of the company’s most recognisable franchises.

The new FAST channels have launched in Germany on Prime Video, Rakuten, and Titan OS, with Samsung TV Plus, LG Channels, Pluto TV, VIDAA, and wedotv scheduled to follow.

Mark Garner, Executive Vice President, Head of Global FAST Channels, A+E Global Media, commented: “Germany, Austria and Switzerland represent key growth markets for FAST, and these single-series channels demonstrate how powerful premium IP can be when it is delivered in a way that is simple, focused and always available. Working with world-class platform partners allows us to meet audiences where they already are, with programming they already love, and to do it at real scale.”

Ax Men takes viewers deep in the woods, where loggers are risking it all in one of the world’s most perilous professions. The channel delivers 24/7 non-stop episodes of the series, combining factual entertainment and reality with high-adrenaline storytelling.

Swamp People ventures deep into the bayous and swamps of Louisiana, following the fiercely proud and self-reliant descendants of Cajun immigrants, Native Americans, and early settlers during the most important time of year: the 30-day alligator-hunting season. Blending reality, adventure, and the outdoors, the channel delivers a rugged portrait of a culture defined by resilience and survival.
