Fubo and comedian Ryan Reynolds have given up on the Maximum Effort Channel less than two years after the free, ad-supported streaming television (Fast) network launched, The Desk has learned.

The channel is no longer available on a handful of third party platforms, including Plex, LG Channels, Xumo Play and Amazon’s Freevee, after technology provider Wurl pulled the plug on the network earlier this week. A website that promoted the channel and its availability went offline on Tuesday. On Dish Network’s Fast platform, Sling Freevee, the Maximum Effort Channel continues to be listed, but its programming feed has been replaced with a “technical difficulties” graphic.

Neither Fubo nor Maximum Effort, the Reynolds-backed company that programmed the channel, have released public statements on the closure of the channel.



In a surprising turn of events, Ryan Reynolds’ Fubo-backed Maximum Effort Channel has announced its closure. The channel, which was launched in partnership with the streaming service FuboTV, was meant to showcase original content created by Reynolds and his production company, Maximum Effort.

The decision to shut down the channel comes as a shock to many fans, who were eagerly anticipating the content that Reynolds had in store. The actor, known for his wit and humor, had promised a variety of original shows and films that would showcase his unique brand of comedy.

While the exact reasons for the channel’s closure have not been disclosed, it is speculated that financial issues may have played a role. Despite the setback, Reynolds remains optimistic about the future of Maximum Effort and has assured fans that they can still expect to see his work on other platforms.

For now, fans will have to wait and see what Reynolds has in store for the future of Maximum Effort. In the meantime, they can still enjoy his work in films and TV shows across various platforms.
