WIGS (web channel)

WIGS was a premium online entertainment channel that produced and streamed scripted short-form series, primarily focused on female-driven narratives. Launched in 2012 by Jon Avnet and Rodrigo Garcia, WIGS aimed to deliver high-quality, cinematic storytelling directly to viewers through digital platforms like YouTube and its own website.

The channel featured a roster of notable actors and actresses, and the series often explored complex themes and relatable characters. WIGS offered a diverse range of genres, including drama, comedy, and romance, with a focus on engaging audiences with compelling characters and well-crafted storylines.

One of the distinctive features of WIGS was its emphasis on digital distribution. By leveraging the reach and accessibility of the internet, the channel sought to bypass traditional television networks and create a direct connection with viewers. This strategy allowed for greater creative freedom and the opportunity to experiment with different formats and content.

While WIGS eventually ceased producing new content, its legacy remains as an early example of how digital platforms could be used to deliver high-quality, serialized storytelling and challenge traditional media models. The channel paved the way for other online streaming services and content creators who sought to reach audiences directly through the internet.
