Telepictures Productions, the producer of show, will continue to host, maintain and program the site. Videos from the show that are featured on the site will now also be distributed across the AOL video network/ Telepictures and AOL also plan to collaborate on editorial programming and digital sales packages on special events, seasonal, and holiday opportunities.
Clearly, AOL is riding on Ellen’s brand to help boost its own content offerings amongst the female demographic. And as Oprah’s show ends next year, Ellen could become the #1 talk show amongst this demographic. AOL’s making a big push towards its content strategy, so I’m sure we can expect similar deals in the future.
