Watch Philippines TV stations from USA

[Backpackers 19]

Does anyone know a good way to watch the tv stations from the Philippines in the US?  I know the big providers have the packages but I don't want to sign a contract.  I'm hoping there is something like Netflix, or HBO Go where I could just pay a monthly fee and stream it to the tv.  Any ideas?

Netflix is legally available there.  I subscribed while I was living in Taiwan.  Please be advised that program availability is different from the US region.

Sorry, I think my wording was confusing.  I'm in the US.  I want to watch Filipino tv stations.

Does your asawa have any type of cable or direct tv? I had cable when my wife got here and I immediately got TFC for her, and then later GMA was made available as well. She watches TFC alot due to the great shows, even I watch it as well because a large amount of the shows have English subtitles so I can follow what is going on.  There is a TFC device you can buy and hook up through your internet. I will try and find it for you right now. 

 

Also my Asawa likes GMA because they have 3 regional news shows: 24 Oras for Mindanao, Balitang Bisdak for Visayas, and Balitang Aminan for Luzon.

It all depends on if they already have some type of cable or satellite service. If they don't then what I sent would be good because she said she did not want to sign a contract. 

Where in the Philippines are you from OP?

[Umka36 781]

I don't know this arena; all I know is that my parents use a satellite dish/receiver and are able to get free over the air channels from Asia. They're retired, so they prefer not paying for a monthly service/contract.

I'm the husband, asking on behalf of my wife.  She's from Cebu City.  

 

We don't currently have satellite or cable because we're going traveling again in a couple months.  We'll be out of the country for awhile and don't want to pay for a subscription while we're gone.

 

The TFC thing looks like what I'm looking for, but it seems there is a one year contract that's required.

Do a Google search for PI shows. Also search on "Philippines TV shows" streaming. Also search through YouTube as there are recorded shows. 

 

My wife has a favorite show she watches every night. Found by doing one of searches I recommended above.

Almost everything reputable will require a subscription in one form or the other. If they don't then you have to watch for viruses or the quality is not good.
