Launched on February 1, 1983 under the name Premier Choix (French: First Choice), the channel was licensed by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to provide a national 24-hour-a-day French-language pay television network.

[1] Premier Choix had a difficult time attracting enough subscribers, as did a regional Quebec-based pay-television network called TVEC which was licensed in November 1982.

[7] On January 21, 2020, Bell announced that it would expand its subscription streaming service Crave into the French-language market on January 28, adding a selection of French-language content for all subscribers, as well as a premium Super Écran tier (equivalent to the "Crave + Movies + HBO" tier tied to Crave's English-language linear service, formerly known as The Movie Network).

[8][9][10] Super Écran offers an extensive variety of Hollywood and Canadian movies, television series from HBO, Showtime and others distributors, and original content.

Go ceased operations on January 28, 2020, with their programming moving to the Crave platform while Sur Demande was only removed for Videotron Subscribers.
