DISCOVERY FAMILY and MITÚ Partner for New Original Programming

Discovery Familia (www.discoveryfamilia.com), the Spanish language network dedicated to Hispanic women and everything that is important in their lives and MiTú (www.MiTú inc.com), the next-generation media company exclusively dedicated to Latino content, announced today that it has signed a cross-platform programming deal to bring MiTú's hottest Latino talent to Discovery Familia's TV and digital audiences.

This fall, Discovery Familia will premiere the long-format version of two new series "Casa Linda," featuring home design expert and professional Art Director, Linda Ruiz and "Gurús de Belleza," starring beauty and fashion influencers Marisol Gomez, Cris Ordaz and Gaby Motomochi. Both shows were originally produced in-house and incubated on MiTú's owned and operated Youtube channel MiTú Life.

"At Discovery Familia we are committed to being at the forefront of the evolving media landscape," said Bilai Joa Silar, Vice President of Content for Discovery Familia and Discovery en Español. "With this strategic partnership we have the opportunity to continue to expand our content offering, leveraging up and coming MiTú talent and reaching our audience with storytelling that travels across platforms."

New episodes of the digital series will continue to run on MiTú Life, and original episodes of the television series will air weekly on Discovery Familia, both tied with a cross-platform engagement program that provides viewers with a truly immersive multi-screen experience.

"MiTú has become an amazing breeding ground and destination for discovering and developing new Latino talent and programming formats," said Beatriz Acevedo, President and Co-founder of MiTú. "We couldn't be more excited about this partnership with Discovery Familia, as MiTú shares the same commitment to providing high quality, aspirational content for Latino audiences around the world."

"Casa Linda" and "Gurús de Belleza" join the robust primetime line up of Discovery Familia.
