TVNZ OnDemand shows are going...
From 28 June 2021, TVNZ OnDemand shows won’t be available through Freeview On Demand anymore - you can only stream them through TVNZ OnDemand.
And don’t worry, this doesn’t affect anything else on Freeview.
You can still enjoy all the Live TV channels (including the TVNZ channels), browse every channel on the Freeview TV Guide or EPG, record it all with a Freeview Recorder and stream hundreds of other shows on-demand, entirely subscription-free.
