at the end of the fringe, we often have a catch-up week that based on previous fringes, should feature 95% of shows

FINAL Line-Up 👀

this includes all of our exclusive livestreams
+
the ITVX duel-streams! 

See our schedule for more details. 

Ps: 

You may be wondering, "Will the livestreams be available for catch-up?" and understandably so!

While we always hope for shows to be available on catch-up, this is ultimately up to the comedian and is beyond our control and difficult to predict. 

As with all our festivals, to help ensure you don't miss out, we encourage everyone to try and watch the shows when they're first streamed and assume that catch-up is not happening (while secretly praying that it is 😂).

Hey gjlewis88

Thanks for your message.

We'd love to support as many devices as possible so we can bring comedy to as many people as possible, but sadly as a start-up with limited budgets, we have to make some tough decisions around our apps. 

Currently, our thinking is that supporting devices like Roku and Fire TV that can plugged into TVs gives our users a high chance of being able to watch NextUp, than specific TV apps. 

However, that might change in the future if we get enough demand from Hisense users and more flexability with our tech stack. 

Thanks again for reaching out and I hope you can continue to enjoy NextUp via your Fire TV stick!
