Something BIG came from the Sky last night at the Loft, in Manansala, Rockwell as Sky Cable launched its new service – SKY on-DEMAND!

The new SKY on-DEMAND allows one to watch his/her favorite TV shows on his/her own time. No more rushing home just to get to the show timeslot, no more relying on small screens of your mobile phones and tablets to watch your favorite shows and definitely, no more home recording! You can instantly play back the TV Shows that you want and even create your playlist. 

You can catch your favorite shows, even local ones –  House of Cards, Master Chef, Restaurant Impossible, Pawn Stars, Bondi Vet, Scorpion, Extant, Red Band Society, Ben 10, Dora, Adventure Time, Chowder, and Two Wives! or TV Patrol. You can also tune in to RTL-CBS, History, Asian Food Channel, Food Network Asia, E!, Lifetime, Cartoon Network, FYI, Nickelodeon, and local networks such as ANC and ABS-CBN. You can also watch movies from Paramount Pictures, NBC-Universal, Stsr Cinema, Regal Films and Viva Films.

The number of shows that you can watch is limitless with a PIN security functionality for each profile so parents can assure that kids cannot subscribe to just any show available in the diverse menu. Subscribers can also assure of more efficient customer service from SKY Cable to support queries about the new Sky on-Demand service. 

During the launch, Morisette gave an amazing and energetic performance! It was my first time to see her perform live and I was awed!

The most exciting part was the Quiz Night section! Our friends from the PR team ensured that blogger friends are distributed (haha, it reminds me of our Mobility Team Mobilympics!). Anyway, the topic was all (as expected) all about SKY Cable and the different shows. The question about Pawnstars and its location was a real miss for me. I knew and said it was Las Vegas because I was telling my friend that I wanted to visit the shop when I get the chance to visit Nevada. But since everyone was talking about LA – (California?) we went with it. It was a miss and another question which answer was Chris Brown.

It was awesome that we have people in the team who have different interests – we got to answer most of the questions correctly.  And who did you think win? Yes, Group 5! Woot!
