Ample Entertainment Launches Ample Originals YouTube Channel

August 6, 2026

Ample Entertainment, the non-fiction studio, has launched Ample Originals, a new YouTube destination for original documentaries, series, creator collaborations and companion content.

The channel gives audiences an early look at its inaugural slate with exclusive previews available now, ahead of the August 7th premiere of Ample Investigates and the August 10th debut of Somebody Knows Something.

Ample Investigates brings audiences a slate of original investigative documentary films that showcase the company’s signature approach to the genre, revisiting zeitgeisty crime stories through present-tense investigation, new revelations and unexpected characters.

Launching alongside Ample Investigates is Somebody Knows Something, a companion YouTube series extending the recently announced ABC News Studios television series of the same name, produced by Ample Entertainment. Premiering August 10th alongside the television debut, the YouTube series is hosted by true crime influencer and kidnapping survivor Kara Robinson Chamberlain, who also hosts the television series. Joined by special guests, she will recap the cases, investigations and conversations behind each episode through original digital content. The television series premieres August 10th on Freeform and streams the following day on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ for bundle subscribers in the US.

“I’ve always wanted to build a platform that lets us bring original content directly to consumers that is curated, thoughtful, and high quality,” commented Ari Mark, CEO, Ample Entertainment. “This channel gives us another way to expand the reach of our storytelling and create a home for original ideas at every stage of development. They allow us to experiment, collaborate with creators and build lasting communities around our work, all while complementing the premium programming we continue to produce for our broadcast and streaming partners. The audience is smart and they want to consume content that’s top shelf. We can offer that.”
