Discovery Life

Discovery Life is an American cable television network owned by Warner Bros. Discovery. Launched on February 1, 2011 as Discovery Fit & Health, it was the result of the merger of the Discovery Health Channel and FitTV, following the former's replacement in its channel space by the Oprah Winfrey Network. The channel primarily focuses on reality programming dealing with "life events". Its programming targets a female audience, and consists of reruns drawn from the libraries of its predecessors and TLC. As of November 2023, Discovery Life is available to approximately 24,000,000 pay television households in the United States-down from its 2017 peak of 47,000,000 households. Along with American Heroes Channel, Boomerang, Cooking Channel, Destination America, Discovery Family, and Science Channel, Discovery Life is among the less prevalent networks of Warner Bros. Discovery. In recent years, Discovery Life has lost carriage with the growth of streaming alternatives including its parent company's HBO Max, and has generally been depreciated by Warner Bros. Discovery in current retransmission consent negotiations with cable and streaming providers.
