- Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment ( NASDAQ: CSSE ) has sealed a deal to get its streaming services onto dedicated remote-control buttons for Vizio ( NYSE: VZIO ) television sets.

- Those services are currently distributed through more than 140 touchpoints on platforms including Amazon Fire TV, Roku, Apple TV, game consoles, iOS/Android devices and smart TV brands including Samsung, LG and Vizio.
- Across Redbox and Crackle, CSSE offers users access to a range of content from ad-supported video-on-demand titles to more than 150 free ad-supported live channels as well as films and series available for purchase or rental.
- “This comes at an optimal time as we grow our AVOD and FAST offering in the coming year," says CSSE Chief Digital Officer Adam Mosam.
