Xfinity Offers More Choices for Watching Your Favorite Shows

Comcast announced the addition of 18 live streaming channels to the Xfinity TV Go app including A&E, Bravo, Cooking Channel, DIY Network, E!, Food Network, HGTV, HISTORY, mun2, Oxygen, Sprout, STARZ, Syfy, TBS, TNT, Travel Channel, truTV and USA Network. With the ability to also stream more than 25,000 On Demand choices and download thousands of hit movies and TV shows to watch offline later, the Xfinity TV Go app now offers more than 50 live channels to enjoy on-the-go, wherever there is a WiFi connection.

Last November, the Xfinity TV Go app began offering live streaming television for the first time, giving customers the ability to watch some of the best news, sports, and kids programming over the Internet on their Apple and Android-powered mobile devices. All of the more than 50 networks are also available for live viewing online at Xfinity.com/TV. For a complete list of networks now available, please visit www.Xfinity.com/watch-live-tv.

In addition to watching more shows on the go with the Xfinity TV Go app, customers can save the date for Watchathon 2014, which starts on March 31.  Xfinity Watchathon Week brings together popular shows from the biggest networks for free on Xfinity On Demand. Customers can watch the entire current season of hit shows like Bates Motel, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Chicago PD, Downton Abbey, The Mindy Project, Nashville, Suits and The Walking Dead and go back to the very beginning of acclaimed series like Black Sails, Game of Thrones, The Good Wife, Friday Night Lights, House of Lies, Parks & Recreation and Parenthood.

In total, Xfinity TV customers will have access to over 40 percent more choices this year: 5,000+ episodes from more than 130 series from 48 premium, cable and broadcast networks, many of which are available across Xfinity On Demand platforms (TV, Xfinity.com/TV and the Xfinity TV Go app for tablets and smartphones).

Xfinity TV customers can catch-up on hit shows like Awkward, Californication, Orphan Black and Veep before their new season premieres in April. At the same time, Watchathon is an opportunity to get current on programs like Archer, Da Vinci’s Demons, Hannibal, The Millers, Justified, and Trophy Wife before this year’s season finale.

Xfinity TV customers can visit the new Watchathon Headquarters site to get ready, plan their week and spread the word with their friends. Join the Watchathon Week conversation on facebook.com/xfinity and on twitter by using #Watchathon and following @XFINITY and @Comcast. Content availability will vary across Xfinity On Demand platforms (TV, Xfinity.com/TV and the Xfinity TV Go app), and in virtually all cases can be viewed regardless of customer’s subscription level.

Enjoy the show!
