HBO On Demand

Hey there. I'm thinking about getting PikTV soon and just wondering about how On Demand content works, specifically for HBO/TMN. I understand by subscribing to HBO/TMN through PikTV you do not get access to TMN GO or anything like that, but can you still watch HBO content on demand through Pik TV?

For example, could I watch an old episode of the Wire on demand through Pik TV, or when Game of Thrones returns next year will new episodes be available for on demand viewing shortly after they air?

It very much depends on which titles the network releases to On Demand; not every show or series is so released. If you want to time-shift, Optik is the better option, as you can record to PVR any show broadcast.

Currently, for instance CraveTV has past episodes of Game of Thrones, but I did not see any on HBO.

Thanks for your response. Would you be able to check the PikTV app for the show Sharp Objects? Its a recent HBO show that only streams through TMN (not on Crave yet).

Sharp Objects season one is available on HBO Canada VOD through the PikTV app.
