TORONTO – Rogers Media is launching companion streaming services for its Citytv and FX linear services this fall, allowing viewers to catch up on an episode or an entire season of their favourite shows.
The services, Citytv Now and FX Now, will be subscriber authenticated, ad-supported, and available online, on mobile apps for iOS and Android, TV Everywhere platforms, and on Video-on-Demand through set-top boxes to TV service providers across Canada.
“Marrying the immersive experience of premium and prime-time television with the immediacy of on-demand, the Citytv Now and FX Now streaming services are a natural extension of the viewer experience,” said Colette Watson, Rogers Media’s television & broadcast operations SVP, in the news release. “With immediate post-broadcast catch up and binge-anytime content from current and past seasons, this is also an exciting opportunity for our sales partners to align their brands with the shows that audiences are actively seeking out, and a great way for television service providers to enrich their offerings for subscribers.”
