Press Releases
Premieres of tv series from Hollywood, for the first time only from Telekom
Budapest, September 26, 2013 13:30
Telekom and Disney Studios signed an exclusive agreement, a real novelty in Hungary.
Thanks to the
agreement between the two companies, episodes of the latest, third seasons of
the popular Hollywood series Revenge and Once Upon a Time will be offered
exclusively on TV in the Video Store of Telekom Interactive TV (IPTV) and
Interactive Sat TV), as well as on-line through Moziaréna (Movie Arena)
service, available not only for the customers of Telekom (
www.moziarena.hu), almost at the same time
as the American premiere.
Departing from the current
practice - under which series are usually put on the schedules of domestic commercial,
public service or thematic channels 1 year following the premiere - domestic
film fans will be able to see the latest episodes within 72 hours following the
American premiere with English, and within 5 days with Hungarian subtitles:
simply, with a few clicks and without commercials.
Since in the
United States the new parts of the Revenge and Once Upon a Time series are
shown on Sundays (the first episodes of the third series will be aired on 29
September), users of Telekom Interactive TV or Moziaréna will be able to see
them on Wednesday evening next week (i.e. for the first time on 2 October) with
English subtitle, and on Friday the same week with Hungarian subtitle (for the
first time on 4 October).
Naturally, the
individual episodes of the two series - a television drama and a fantasy -
remain available later, for 4 weeks from the time of the first airing, so they
can be watched later, too. The planned
rental price would be HUF 599 per episode.
