TVNZ OnDemand shows are going...

From 28 June 2021, TVNZ OnDemand shows won’t be available through Freeview On Demand anymore - you can only stream them through TVNZ OnDemand.

Live TV channels and other Freeview features are unaffected, so you can still watch all your favourite channels on your telly, check out what’s on for the week, and record1 the shows you want to keep.

Why are TVNZ OnDemand shows no longer available on Freeview On Demand?

TVNZ OnDemand shows are being removed from Freeview On Demand on 28 June 2021 as TVNZ has decided that TVNZ OnDemand will be the only home for the streaming of its on-demand content going forward.

Freeview doesn’t own or have rights to the on-demand content from TVNZ.  That content is delivered through Freeview On Demand at the broadcaster's discretion, and likewise can be removed at their say so. 

But don't worry, all the content will still be available.  You can go to TVNZ OnDemand to watch TVNZ OnDemand shows, and use Freeview On Demand to watch all the other on-demand shows on your TV.
