Can you watch shows like TWD on demand immediately after they air live?

Ole lady watches dateline and This Is Us on NBC. could she watch those both in the same fashion?

How much is the HBO add on?

Thanks!

I have the DirecTv app that comes with my subscription. With what I have it is streaming live TV. When I first downloaded the app and checked out a few channels to see how it worked. It is a hair ahead or behind the TV but other than that there is no difference and the shows are "live".

It ranges but I'm 99% sure AMC is available on DTV NOW.

I know. I have DirecTV Now and added HBO to my package for $5/mo.

The VOD library for DTVN is weak IMO... I just checked and there's a total of 1 episode of TWD on AMC VOD.

Something else that's driving me nuts... when I click on networks and go to HBO, why isn't there a "show all" button for Shows? Is it missing or am I blind?

If you are looking for VOD as a primary feature then I'd say DTVNow isn't the answer.

Now I'd say if you already have Kodi/Exodus/Hulu+....then that's your VOD right there.

Jack I just looked myself on AMC and you were right but I also see the channels are down again. Are they working for you? I checked on my iphone.

According to the Reddit peeps last week, DTVN is currently undergoing a roll out of VOD content. Some is working and some not so much. They are adding new content everyday according to someone in the DTVN camp.
