Our First Spectrum Original Content Show

Our first original show, “L.A.’s Finest,” which launched in May of 2019, is a great example of how Charter values diversity both in front of and behind the camera. Jessica Alba and Gabrielle Union are among the show’s stars and executive producers. 

“We are deeply committed to diversity in our original content and programming that is reflective of the broad interests, voices and rich composition of our nation,” said Katherine Pope, Senior Vice President and Head of Original Content.
