Cignal Plan 290 gives you access to a diverse selection of channels that broadcast live sports, news, movies, TV shows, and other content that may not be available through other services. With Cignal Plan 290, you don’t have to go on different streaming platforms and pay for each one. Cignal TV also comes with features like DVRs to record the shows you may not be at home for – so it works just like a streaming platform where you can watch as many times as you want, when you want to.

The plan includes infotainment from premium channels and programming including HBO, Nickelodeon, Cinemax, One News, HITS, and BBC Earth, catering to every member of the family no matter what age and interest.

Love basketball? Never miss a game from the world’s biggest basketball league with NBA TV Philippines, a dedicated NBA channel for Filipinos, where fans can watch live games daily from the US. Off season, you can relive the glory days of your favorite team as the channel broadcasts past NBA seasons and specials. There’s also UAAP Varsity Channel, which broadcasts the games in season, and PBA Rush, which is a channel dedicated to the local professional basketball league 24/7. Get front-row access to ongoing international and local sports tournaments including Japan B-League, Spikers Turf, and PVL on One Sports+.

Movie fans can catch the hottest movies on HBO. Kung Fu Panda 4, after its successful theatrical run last year, is set to make its highly anticipated debut in Asia exclusively on HBO, marking the first time audiences in the region will experience the latest chapter in Po’s epic journey on TV. Bringing family-friendly excitement and action to screens across Asia, HBO continues to solidify its reputation as the go-to destination for blockbuster premieres.    

Meanwhile, on HBO Family, Timothy Chalamet stars in Wonka (2023), the origin story of billionaire chocolatier Willy Wonka. Chalamet plays the young inventor and dreamer Wonka, who leads a ragtag group of misfits to overthrow the chocolate mafia. The fantastical musical film is a fun ride of pure imagination.

Over at Cinemax, you can indulge your horror science fiction fantasies with M3GAN, a psychological film that viewers find disturbing for its realistic filmmaking style. With AI and robot prototypes a reality these days, the film takes on an almost real-time update of what AI can do. The M3GAN doll personifies humans’ relationship with AI, taking on the role of a child’s playmate, teacher, protector and friend, and seems like a gift for busy parents – until the horrific consequences unfold.

For fans of reality TV and other heartfelt movies, Lifetime HD features one of the craziest reality shows ever conceived. Though it considers itself as a social experiment, Married at First Sight: Australia pairs strangers who meet for the first time at the altar to be married. They then embark on their honeymoon and “live together for a period of time and each week decide whether they will continue their relationship at a commitment ceremony where they can choose to either stay or leave.”

To stay updated on world and local news, Cignal’s lineup includes news programming in Filipino and English. The Big Story, a flagship news program on One News, delivers in-depth coverage of the day’s most important headlines, offering analysis and perspectives from experts, journalists, and newsmakers.
