shredie Posted September 16, 2015 #51 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I remember one movie I had wanted to see a few years ago. Because of when the movie was scheduled vs when we were in the cabin, I ended up seeing over three viewing sessions the middle first, the end second, and the beginning third. LOL! I thought I was the only one who did that! :) Of course, there is always "The Love Boat." ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judydoc Posted September 16, 2015 #52 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I really enjoyed the on demand TV on the Royal. Great selection of shows and movies and as others have said, you can watch a bit and pick up where you left off later on. We enjoyed it on the Regal and loved it! Loved the idea that you could stop and pick it up later as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tserface Posted September 16, 2015 #53 Share Posted September 16, 2015 We've never been on a Princess ship that has this yet, but one thing I really enjoy on Celebrity ships is that I can start watching a movie (on demand) and it remembers where I left off so I can pick it up later. I tend to do this while my wife is getting ready in the morning or for bed. I can typically watch half hour to 45 minutes at a time and it's super convenient to knock off a movie that she doesn't care about ... and kind of a great way to relax. It's nice to hear that Princess is picking up on this idea. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseagain2 Posted September 16, 2015 #54 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Does On Demand include tv shows as well as movies? What channels are included? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Flyer Posted September 16, 2015 #55 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Does On Demand include tv shows as well as movies? What channels are included? Thanks The only live programming is sports & news except for some special programs such as the Academy Awards. There are some prerecorded repeats of TV series however nothing live.

Rare TracieABD Posted September 16, 2015 #56 Share Posted September 16, 2015 The only live programming is sports & news except for some special programs such as the Academy Awards. There are some prerecorded repeats of TV series however nothing live. They will also show the Super Bowl. (How strange that I have been on several cruisse during the Super Bowl...) I have twice cruised on the Royal, and I love the system. I wrote about it in my last two live froms. On the first Royal cruise, the system came in very handy, as I had a pretty bad cold (think- "man cold"), and I could start and stop frequently.

Thrak Posted September 16, 2015 #57 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I've read that it's supposed to be fleet wide by the end of the year but I don't think I'll hold my breath. We board Coral on Monday and I haven't heard anything about the feature being available on that ship yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaGeg Posted September 18, 2015 #58 Share Posted September 18, 2015 We're going on the Royal next month and I was curious if the movie Frozen is on demand. It's my toddlers new obsession and if it's not onboard I'm probably gonna have to put it in my Kindle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caribill Posted September 18, 2015 #60 Share Posted September 18, 2015 We're going on the Royal next month and I was curious if the movie Frozen is on demand. It's my toddlers new obsession and if it's not onboard I'm probably gonna have to put it in my Kindle. It has been on MUTS, so the answer is probably yes.

Orangefan Posted September 19, 2015 #61 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I enjoy having the old Loveboat shows on the tv while getting dressed. So many big stars were on that show and many young stars got their exposure on the show. I was on the Regal's b2b inaugural cruises last November and it was a thrill to see the original Loveboat cast. Sali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
