Syfy Joins NBCU’s TV Everywhere Initiative

NEW YORK: As part of NBCUniversal’s TV Everywhere cross-portfolio rollout, Syfy has launched a new Syfy Now app for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.

The app gives authenticated users on-the-go access to original Syfy series, available the day after their linear premiere.

Syfy is the second cable entertainment network within NBCUniversal to provide this offering, in addition to Bravo Now. The plan is for all the cable networks to follow suit.

“Syfy’s audience of tech-savvy ‘Igniters’ are among the very first to find new and more immersive ways to access and consume their favorite Syfy programs,” said Dave Howe, the president of Syfy and Chiller. “Syfy Now will deliver the kind of experience our smart and trend-setting viewers are looking for from us.”
