A three-month free preview of Viceland is available on Rogers Channel 15 starting today!  Viceland is a television channel with original content from around the world that covers not only news, but also food, music, travel, and yes, marijuana.

One of their first series follows Canadian actor Ellen Page, who recently came out. In the series ‘Gaycation,’ she and her best friend Ian Daniel travel to other countries to experience their LGBT scenes.

“Probably everyone has heard of Ellen Page. She’s doing an amazing series” said Michael Kronish, the vice-president of television for Vice Media.

“We’re also doing a music show called ‘Noisey,’ and another TV show called ‘Vice Guide to Film’ which will play on Friday nights.”

The channel will also air ‘Weediquette,’ about the legal marijuana industry, which started on Vice.com.

One of the biggest differences between Viceland and other stations is that most of their shows will be produced in-house (not purchased). Filmmaker Spike Jonze, a co-president at Viceland, said that was intentional

While “most channels are just a collection of shows, we wanted Viceland to be different, to feel like everything on there has a reason to exist and a strong point of view,” Jonze told Vice.com.

“Our mission with the channel is not that different from what our mission is as a company: It’s us trying to understand the world we live in by producing pieces about things we’re curious about, or confused about, or that we think are funny.”
