This isn’t the first time that the Fine Brothers have expanded their React franchise to other platforms. In 2014, they partnered with Nick Cannon and Nickelodeon on a TV show inspired by the digital format entitled React To That. The franchise also encountered some controversy earlier this year with an initiative titled React World by which it hoped to open the franchise up to the masses. But following a wave of intense backlash, the company shelved plans for the licensing program, gave up the trademarks for its React formats, and announced its intention to rescind ContentID claims.

The Fullscreen subscription platform, launched in April, is priced at $4.99 per month and is home to original shows including Jack & Dean of All Trades, Keeping Score, and House Divided, as well as talk formats Shane & Friends, Zall Good with Alexis G. Zall, and Not Too Deep With Grace Helbig.
