7flix

7flix is an Australian free-to-air digital television multichannel, which was launched by the Seven Network on 28 February 2016.

History
On 18 December 2015, a test pattern began broadcasting on channel 76 reading "New Channel Coming Soon". Seven acknowledged the broadcast and director of programming Angus Ross formally announced on 1 February 2016 that Seven was launching a new channel and more details would be released soon. During the ad-break of miniseries Molly on 7 February 2016, Seven announced that channel 76 would be named 7flix and would be launched on 28 February 2016. The "New Channel" test pattern was then replaced with a continuous promo loop for 7flix.

7flix began broadcasting at 6am on 28 February 2016 in MPEG-4, as seen in a YouTube video showing the promo loop ending and a re-run of Once Upon A Time starting afterwards. The channel airs movies in its prime time slots with television series and other entertainment at other times. 7flix was added to Seven's live streaming service PLUS7 Live upon its launch.

On 13 April 2016, it was announced the channel would amend its schedule, shifting its focus from movies to more American dramas. This change began in the weeks prior when Grey's Anatomy premiered at 8:30pm, which was initially designated as a "movie-exclusive" timeslot. The change also sees the addition of repeats of Criminal Minds to Thursday nights.

On 3 June 2016, 7flix became available on more TVs as the channel switched to MPEG-2.

On 3 August 2017, 18 months after launching in metropolitan areas, Prime7 announced that it would carry 7flix to its regional stations in northern and southern New South Wales, regional Victoria and Mildura. The channel was launched at 6:00 am of 3 September on digital channel 66, in an MPEG-4 format.

In December 2019 it was announced that 7flix will rebrand in 2020 to target a young female audience. It will also air content from the defunct 7food network channel.

Programming
The launch titles for 7flix included new episodes of US series Once Upon A Time, The Muppets, The Mindy Project, Cougar Town and The Amazing Race, which had previously debuted on the Seven Network. Premiere series such as Black-ish, Grandfathered, Galavant and Agent Carter debuted at a later date. Throughout 2016, new episodes of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Grey's Anatomy, How to Get Away with Murder, Quantico and Scandal aired exclusively on the channel. Also featured on the channel were marathons of The Big Bang Theory, but this series was now returns on Nine.

7flix initially aired a variety of children's series from Disney including Austin & Ally, Dog with a Blog, I Didn't Do It, Jessie, Kirby Buckets, Lab Rats and Mighty Med. The daytime schedule for the channel consists of classic sitcoms such as Benson, Bewitched, Good Times, I Dream of Jeannie and Who's The Boss? 7flix also airs encores of local programmes from the Seven Network, including House Rules and First Dates.
