Award season is upon us and a fantastic selection of entertainment is available, but how do you choose what to watch and where to watch it? This month, we’ve put together a list of the award-winning titles and where you can find them on your Fetch set top box, so you can be sure to watch all the top films available right now.
There’s a huge selection of content available via the Movie Store, Catch-Up TV and streaming services, and it can be overwhelming. To make things easy-peasy for you, here’s the top ten features of your Fetch set top box so you can fetch and customise your entertainment with ease.
1. Catch-Up TV for on-demand access to content on Free-to-Air channels plus a range of subscription channels so you don’t miss your favourite shows.
2. Did you know that you have access to 30 pre-selected movies at any time on a standard Fetch subscription with Movie Box? That’s right! A new movie is added each day for you to watch at any time.
3. Here’s a streaming shortcut; hit the ‘Apps’ menu on your remote and you can get streaming with Netflix, Stan or 10 All Access* straight away! You can also use the ‘Netflix’ button on your remote** to go straight to Netflix.
4. Life doesn’t stop while you’re catching up on your entertainment, but that’s okay, because the Fetch Mini box can hold your place on live TV for up to 15 minutes. That means you can hit pause at any time, or if you miss something important, you can simply rewind and watch again!
5. Tailor your subscription with our great add-on channel packs, or go Ultimate and get over 45 premium channels! We’ve also got World Channel Packs plus beIN SPORTS and Eurosport for the sports fans.
6. You don’t have to be home to watch Fetch! Enjoy entertainment on the go with the Fetch Mobi App. You can set recordings from your Mighty, watch movies and TV shows and download purchased movies and TV shows to watch when you’re not connected to data. It even doubles as a backup remote! Download the app and check out all the features in this video.
7. There is a location for all your TV shows and movies in your ‘My Stuff’ menu so you can find them with ease.
8. You can pair your Bluetooth headphones to your Fetch set top box and watch the big game or your fave movie at any time of the day or night, at any volume. Check out this video for more information.
9. Keep the whole family happy with Fetch Multiroom. One Fetch subscription can be shared across multiple screens by adding a Mini or a Mighty to your existing box, which means no one has to miss out their shows again.
10. Fetch works with devices running Google Assistant such as Google Home and compatible Android/iOS mobile phones. This means you can use voice commands to find out what’s on Fetch, set recordings, search for movies and TV shows, change the channel, and much more.
BONUS FEATURE – With the Fetch Mighty, you can record and save your content on the Mighty’s massive one terabyte hard drive – that’s big enough to record up to 585 hours of standard definition TV. Not only can you record up to 6 shows at once while watching another, you can also set a Series Tag for a show to ensure it records every episode so you don’t miss a moment!
Award season has seen a flourish of films taking home awards. With the 92nd Academy Awards, 26th Annual Screen Actor Guild Awards (SAG Awards) and 73rd British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA) winners announced, there is a whole lot of content for you to add to your must-watch list. If you haven’t seen these award-winning films yet, don’t worry – you can catch them on Fetch!

I have been given a Fetch box.
How do I go about installing it and how much extra will I need to pay for it once installed?
I’m 83 and not terribly tech savvy.

Fetch got rid of the two best channels, 13th street and sifi and replaced them with a motor channel and a full on murder channel. what a waist of time, surely they could have found two more family friendly channels
How do I get Investigation Discovery ?
Hi Woz,
Investigation Discovery is available on FetchTV via the Variety Pack, which is an additional $6 per month or via the Ultimate Pack, for an additional $20 per month.

But no Real sports, like what is available on Kayo. Any chance of that being added in the future?
How do I watch The Irishman movie through IINET ?
Hi Rama,
‘The Irishman’ is a Netflix exclusive movie, so you’ll need a Netflix subscription to access it, which you can use via Fetch.

At 76, not impressed by the tp heavy load of kid’s stuff that comes with the alleged free movies, And anything that requires a monthly subscription is not free. I guess in this serving of old b grades, one is paying not to be inundated with commercials. Like free to air which pounds funeral insurance and other parasite services as if there is no tomorrow. It’s all about maximising profits and nothing else, isn’t it?
So when I switched why didn’t I get fetch as promised?
