Discovery Digital Networks Announce Launch of New Network SEEKER

Discovery Digital Networks today announces the launch of SEEKER, a new online network featuring adventurers, explorers and storytellers on journeys - both physical and emotional - that celebrate the world around us. The latest addition to the web-native portfolio from Discovery Communications, SEEKER launches with a robust slate of programming - including a dozen original web series and engaging affiliates, and Michelob Ultra as its first sponsor.

Adventure requires curiosity, and a seeker requires adventure. Discovery Digital Networks' SEEKER delivers experiences paired with reflection - from those who have journeyed "off the grid" in pursuit of a more fulfilling life to individuals from all walks of life revealing their personal, profound rituals. Laura Ling, a leading voice and innovator, produces and hosts several SEEKER series, including Going Off Grid and Rituals, and will be joined by an incredible roster of storytellers and characters.

"At Discovery Digital Networks, we believe that awe, inspiration and the insatiable CURIOSITY of the social generation is rich with great programming," said Colin Decker, General Manager of Discovery Digital Networks. "From extreme adventure travel to powerful journeys of the heart, SEEKER encourages us all to chase wonder."
