Finally! Finally! Finally!
Disney-ABC International Television (Asia Pacific), and TVNZ, have announced a landmark agreement to make a selection of ad-supported U.S. network series available on TVNZ’s catch up TV service, ‘TVNZ ondemand’. These series will be available to viewers on-demand and free of charge just 12 hours after the local telecast on TV2. This marks the first time that U.S. series will be offered free of charge online in New Zealand. This is Disney-ABC International Television’s second free ad-supported video-on-demand (VOD) agreement in Asia Pacific.
The ‘TVNZ ondemand’ service launches with the first season of “Private Practice,” which airs Mondays at 8:30pm on TV2. The first three episodes of “Private Practice” will also be available online so fans can catch up on the episodes they missed on television.
All episodes will be available on www.tvnzondemand.com for 28 days.
More series will follow suit later this year and next including new seasons of “Eli Stone,” “Lost,” “Desperate Housewives,” “Grey’s Anatomy” “Brothers & Sisters” “Criminal Minds,” “Dirt,” “Reaper,” “Samantha Who?,” Scrubs,” and “October Road.” Series launch dates on ‘TVNZ ondemand’ will depend on the TV2′s broadcast schedule.
Each month an average of 30,000 hours of television is watched via TVNZ ondemand. The content is currently a mix of local shows, the latest news and current affairs and some selected UK and Australian titles.
