TORONTO - The wait is over; we’re moving in today. Opening the door to a world of entertainment, shomi is now available to all Canadians. Entertainment lovers from coast to coast can subscribe to shomi directly and stream exclusive and buzzworthy series including Fresh off the Boat, Empire, Vikings, Transparent, Jane the Virgin, Outlander, Sons of Anarchy, Black Sails, and iZombie – hit titles the other guys don’t have. An extraordinary cast of characters is moving in, so make some room and grab the popcorn – or brains with hot sauce, if you prefer. We won’t judge.

Starting today, Canadians can subscribe directly to shomi to access the service through their Internet provider. And shomi is accessible on the platforms Canadians want – tablet, mobile, online, Xbox 360, Apple TV, Chromecast, as well as set-top boxes for Rogers and Shaw TV subscribers. The service is also on offer to other cable providers and ISPs. New members get to try their first month of shomi for free when they subscribe, then enjoy non-stop streaming for just $8.99 per month.

shomi launched in November 2014 in beta to Rogers and Shaw subscribers. Since then, the service has signed deals with the most innovative studios, networks, and content distributors and has rapidly grown the program library, continuing to add new series and movies every week.
