MsSoCalCruiser Posted August 21, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Does anyone know what TV channels you can view in your stateroom? It's not a Make or Break or a Do or Die situation but I would like to see the "Big Bang Theory" spin off "Young Sheldon" and it will air during my cruise. Thank you! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pl281 Posted August 21, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 21, 2017 More than likely unless you are streaming it (note internet speed varies based on location of ship / number of people using) you won't be able to. Most of the "live tv" are international news stations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xport Posted August 21, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 21, 2017 The ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC entertainment channels to which you are accustomed will not be available aboard ship... Some assortment of the affiliated news channels of those networks--such as MSNBC and Fox News [along with CNN International, UK-based BBC and UK-based Sky News]--are typically among the abbreviated lineup of channels offered while aboard [assuming a satellite connection]... If important, you might consider scheduling that "Young Sheldon" [does sound as if it might be fun!] be recorded during your absence for viewing upon your return home...

casper106 Posted August 21, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 21, 2017 None of the big US channels are available are out of luck. Streaming perhaps but that can be frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsSoCalCruiser Posted August 21, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Oh, darn. Thank you, I will have my DVR set and watch it when I get home. I was just really looking forward to seeing it and it would've been fun to watch it with my friends, with a drink, from the martini bar :cool: Thanks again.

Lisah101 Posted August 21, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Since TV is based on Satellite Reception, we've also had times when the channel selection changed during the cruise so it may also depend on where you are cruising. This seemed to be more prevalent on transatlantic cruises I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I will not be streaming on the ship. I cannot believe how expensive it is to purchase Internet on a Celebrity cruise. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe someone from Celebrity will see this and show it on the big screen :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you Google it you can watch the trailer. It looks like it's going to be pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisah101 Posted August 22, 2017 #10 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I completely understand, I will be cruising to Hawaii in September and can't do without my Outlander on Starz! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsSoCalCruiser Posted August 24, 2017 Author #12 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Not likely. Yeah, I know that. I also said maybe they would fix their website and that didn't happen either. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pl281 Posted August 24, 2017 #13 Share Posted August 24, 2017 One other thought as you said you are going to be on a coastal cruise - Not sure how far out you'll be from the coast / what your cell phone plan is, but if you are still connected to the cell network - you might be able to stream over that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
