TiVO's Got You Covered For The Royal Wedding


Are you ready for the BIG DAY? The WEDDING OF THE YEAR! OF THE CENTURY? OF THE MILLENIUM!?! Okay, all joking aside the people of the world really are waiting with bated breath for the marriage of Prince William to Kate Middleton this Friday April 29, 2011 at 06:00am EDT. But with so much coverage that's going to be available... what to do? What to do? Well that's where TiVO comes in. They've gone ahead and introduced an exclusive "Royal Wedding" Collection as part of its TiVo Collections feature. This collection delivers all of the content available surrounding the Royal Wedding available through a TiVo subscriber's cable lineup or on demand from Web partners such as Amazon Instant Video, Netflix or BLOCKBUSTER.

SEE: Kate Middleton more beautiful than princess Diana?

"TiVo users can tune into the 'Royal Wedding' Collection to record and enjoy the best of traditional TV and the Web throughout the entire week leading up to the ceremony. This unique feature allows for an ideal viewing experience -- one that goes beyond simply watching the ceremony live or recording it on a generic DVR as fans can easily search for everything from web videos about the event to recent wedding specials, all packaged seamlessly in TiVo's stunning user interface," said Tara Maitra, Senior Vice President, GM, Content and Media Sales of TiVo. "In short, fans don't have to keep jumping from TV to computer and back again trying to search for and watch the video they want; TiVo's solved that royal headache for them."



Here are some ideas for exploring the Royal Wedding Collection leading up to Friday's festivities:
  • Get the inside scoop on all the wedding details with NBC's "Inside the Royal Wedding" special airing April 27 with "Today" hosts Matt Lauer and Meredith Vieira
  • Want a humorous take on all the wedding hoopla? Don't miss Bravo's pre-wedding special "Watch What Happens Live!: Royal Wedding Spectacular" with host Andy Cohen and Countess LuAnn De Lesseps of "Real Housewife" fame
  • Fear not if you missed Lifetime's "William & Kate" made-for-TV movie this past weekend. Invite your friends over before Friday to watch the movie in all its cheesy glory
  • If all the wedding news has made you nostalgic for 1981 and another Royal Wedding, you can relive those days by checking out "Charles & Di: Once Upon a Time"
  • Want an inside look into the Monarchy? Don't miss the Oscar-winning film, "The Queen" to see what some say really went down inside the Palace walls after Princess Diana's death
  • Catch day-of coverage with the trio from Morning Joe on MSNBC including Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski and Willie Geist who are based in London all week
  • TiVo Premiere's Collections feature highlights the best that television and the web have to offer -- all grouped into fresh, fun and up-to-date categories. You can explore topical collections, event-driven collections, seasonal selections and groups of shows related to something new, interesting or popular.
