Stingray and Just For Laughs have joined forces to bring the Just For Laughs Stand-Up channel to Samsung TV Plus in Australia and New Zealand.
This is Stingray’s first connected TV partnership for the channel, which delivers a curated selection of sketches and stand-up bits, including segments with Bill Burr, Nikki Glaser, Nate Bargatze, Marcello Hernández, and Mae Martin, all sourced from the Just For Laughs library.

We are committed to delivering top-tier entertainment, and this partnership is a significant step in our strategy to grow our FAST channel footprint globally.”
