Everyone’s favorite landscape painting instructor is back on an ultimate streaming channel. 25 years after his passing, Bob Ross will now have a streaming channel devoted entirely to the show The Joy of Painting. Cinedigm and Bob Ross Inc. have teamed up to provide viewers with access to all 380 episodes, which are set to air back to back.
Viewers can get back to painting their happy little trees in the brand new “Bob Ross Channel”. The channel launched this last Thursday, April 16th and aired on Samsung connected TVs.
For the moment, only Samsung TVs equipped with the free Samsung TV Plus streaming service will be able to view the channel. Luckily, Roku members will gain access to the Bob Ross Channel starting May 18th, 2020 along with a few other ad-supported VOD services.
The Joy of Painting aired in 1984 and went for ten years until Bob Ross passed away from lymphoma in 1995. The show was originally broadcast on public access television and has been providing viewers with calm content for decades after. For those without a Samsung connected TV, viewers can still watch the lovely white dude with an afro on Beauty is Everywhere and Chill with Bob Ross streaming on Netflix.
The Joy of Painting has already been re-released on Samsung TVs and will air on Roku starting May 18th, 2020.
