Twist was an American digital multicast television network owned by Tegna Inc. Launched on April 5, 2021, the network specializes in factual lifestyle and reality television content aimed at females between the ages of 25 and 54, sourcing its programs from the archives of NBCUniversal Television and Streaming, with its name coming from the common reality show "twist" in an overall narrative.[1] The network was available in many media markets via the digital subchannels of over-the-air television stations, and on select cable and Internet Protocol television providers in certain markets through local affiliates of the network.
