Sky Atlantic is the home of some of the best new content available and can only be accessed by either Sky TV customers or NOW subscribers, featuring the best content from Sky, HBO and Showtime.
It's the only place to watch HBO shows in the UK, making it the home of US blockbusters like House of the Dragon, Succession, Westworld, Watchmen, Big Little Lies and True Detective.
Sky Showcase recently replaced Sky's first channel, and the UK's oldest non-terrestrial TV channel, Sky One. Sky Showcase is now the new home of the best content in Sky's portfolio.
It airs all sorts of documentaries, comedies and films, including everything from Blacklist to Modern Family and The Simpsons.
Sky Max is another newly launched channel which will be the home of original Sky TV shows such as COBRA and A League Of Their Own, as well as panel shows like Never Mind The Buzzcocks, The Russell Howard Hour and DC Superheroes shows.
Previously known as Syfy, Sky Sci-Fi is the home of all things science fiction, including Killjoys, Krypton, Battlestar Galactica, Futurama, and The Twilight Zone. With plenty of its own original content, there will always be a new weird and wonderful show for you to geek out over.
The 11 Sky Sports channels aren’t part of Sky’s Signature TV package but can be added either altogether or individually. These include Sky Sports Premier League, Sky Sports Cricket and Sky Sports Formula 1.
Sky Cinema channels can also be added to your Sky TV package, with 11 movie channels and on-demand access to over 1,000 movies.

Sky has been the Disney destination for UK audiences for years, and the launch of Disney Plus threatened to change that. However, Sky customers can now stream the wonderful world of Disney through their Sky Q boxes, while Sky Cinema Disney remains the first place to see Disney movies after they’ve appeared in cinemas.
You can access all of the 250 Freeview channels directly through your Sky TV set-top box, including BBC One, BBC Two, ITV, and Channel 4 (including HD) as well as Dave, Yesterday and Challenge and movie channels like Film4 and TCM.
