New series

On Sky Q you could go into the 'New Series' section and it would show new programmes that were coming on soon. Ok, it became less reliable as time went on, not showing some new ones, but showing repeats when just on a different channel.

 

Am I missing something, or is there not something similar on Stream? If not, how are you supposed to know when there is a new programme/series starting, to add it to your Playlist?

Hi @botty1963 @really good question. Sky OS (the OS for Stream and Glass) has more of a living menu than Sky Q did, it's more editorial and constantly changes. 

You do occasionally see suggestions for upcoming shows, for example The Last of Us which started again last night was pretty heavily promoted on the menus. 

Regarding a single place to see upcoming stuff, I don't think there is one. But on the "TV Shows" section there's normally a showcase of last night's top TV and trending shows, which is a good way to discover new shows.

Hi @botty1963  I hope I am allowed to mention this as I have absolutely no connection to it, but there is a website called Just Watch which I use and is free.  This will tell you every new program being shown either that day or coming up.  When you sign in you can select, if you wish, the streaming services you subscribe to so you are only notified of shows you can actually watch.

Some things to help find content.


On the Home menu, scroll right, many new promoted series will appear there.

 

Say 'What shall I watch' and scroll through the rails.

 

Scroll one rail down from the home page, move right from the Playlist tile and click on the tiles  TV shows, Movies etc...

The first few rails in each of those is top picks and last night TV and scroll down for a larger tile that shows some of the latest promoted content.

 

Or just get in the habit of scrolling down the homepage for a mixture of different rails presenting all kinds of content.
