René Saal, Deputy Managing Director in charge of Programming and operations, Canal+ Group
(SDR 2007-2008)

« Canal+’s Le Bouquet bundles have added Canal+ Family, the first premium channel for the entire family in France. This general-interest channel, launched on October 20, 2007, has a programming grid built around movies (more than 30 slots each week), three major animation slots, documentaries, series and TV movies.
The channel broadcasts no commercials and avoids violence. It encourages listening, sharing, conviviality and discussion. Its offering of warm, convivial programs appeals to viewers from age 1 to 100. Canal+ Family’s atmosphere is vibrant and creative, to appeal to both young and old.
The family can gather around the set to share good times watching a movie, an animated classic, a weekly game or a series.»
