NBCUniversal this month launched Hayu – its all-reality, direct-to-consumer subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) service – on Sky Glass and Sky Stream, providing even more ways for fans of reality TV to easily access the content they love.
Sky customers, with an insatiable appetite for the reality genre, can watch Hayu simply by saying: “Hello Sky, Get Hayu” to Sky Glass or “Hayu” into the voice remote. Hayu can also be found in the apps rail.
With over 300 shows and 10,000 episodes of top reality TV content – including world-renowned franchises and their spin-offs such as The Real Housewives, Million Dollar Listing, Below Deck and Vanderpump Rules – Hayu delivers complete box sets of all seasons in an ad-free environment. The streamer caters to the diverse tastes of reality enthusiasts by providing a wide array of options, spanning various unscripted sub-genres including Home and Design, Dating, Cooking, True Crime, and Fashion. There is no need to fear spoilers, as the majority of US shows become available on Hayu the same day as their US broadcast.
Hendrik McDermott, MD, EMEA Networks, Hayu and Direct-to-Consumer, NBCUniversal:
“We are pleased to further expand Hayu’s distribution in the UK and extend our partnership with Sky, making the service even more accessible via its world-class platforms. Hayu’s integration with Sky Glass and Sky Stream reinforces our commitment to provide reality fans with a seamless viewing experience. Sky customers can expect nothing less than top-tier reality content, full seasons, and uninterrupted, ad-free viewing.”
Hayu’s content is easily accessible on Sky Glass and Sky Stream thanks to the smart and intuitive operating system Entertainment OS which brings all the best shows together in one place, without having to jump from app to app. Viewers can simply say: “Hello Sky, play The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” to Sky Glass or speak into the voice remote to effortlessly watch the TV they love.
Current Hayu subscribers who already have Sky Glass or Sky Stream can log in directly to their existing accounts, and new Hayu users can subscribe through Sky Marketplace, allowing them to have their app subscriptions all in one place. Since its launch in 2016, Hayu has distinguished itself as the must-have, all-reality on-demand service. Fans of reality tv can subscribe for £4.99 per month, with a 7-day free trial.
