YouTube TV Adds ‘Court TV’ To Expanding Channel Lineup

YouTube TV is rounding out its channel lineup in quarantine.

The service has added Court TV to its programming offer — a newly-rebooted network devoted to legal news and the analysis of headline-grabbing trials.

“We’re thrilled to have Court TV added to YouTube TV at a time when consumer appetite for the real-life drama of true-crime and courtroom trials has never been greater,” Jonathan Katz, president and CEO of Scripps-owned Katz Networks — which is the parent company of 20-year-old Court TV — said in a statement.
