Your Samsung and LG TVs get 8 blockbuster new channels this month and all for free


Just when you thought you had enough things to tune into another eight channels are launching this month. The upgrade, called Sony One, is coming courtesy of Sony Pictures Entertainment with the company confirming that it’s adding more things to watch for free. The new eight channels will be available to those with smart LG and Samsung TVs in their living rooms along with owners of TiVo+ compatible devices. 

Strangely, it seems Sony’s own TVs aren’t part of this update although that could change at a later date so watch this space if you own one of those screens.

Content will include comedy such as Seinfeld, favourites like Dawson’s Creek, thrillers including Breaking Bad and movies such as Men in Black and Zombieland.

As we mentioned before, there’s nothing to pay with content paid for via adverts. Sony now say its FAST offerings – Free Ad-supported Streaming Television – will be boosted to a total of 54 channels once the Sony One update is live.

“Sony Pictures recognises the potential of the free ad-supported television space to engage new viewers globally with our extensive feature film and TV series catalogue spanning 100 years. Our entry into the FAST space in Europe reflects our dedication to making premium content accessible to audiences on new and important distribution channels,” Pete Wood, SVP, Digital Sales, Distribution, SPE.

Sony has confirmed that its One service will launch in the UK this month. Users in France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland will also get access.
