Finally! Not the re-runs but some new shows to watch on the telly, which will air right after they are relayed in the US. Star India network has brought to life a new channel that many youngsters and American TV watchers are appreciating in India. At the moment, the new TV channel is only available on the Tata Sky network to their HD users. The viewers need to pay a premium of Rs 60 per month, along with the existing package and HD charges. Users can also pay an annual charge of Rs 500 for the channel.

New shows like Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, The Michael J. Fox Show, The Blacklist and The Goldbergs, along with new seasons of Homeland, Castle, Revenge, White Collar, Modern Family and The Simpsons will be aired on this channel. In total, 26 latest episodes of new and returning shows will be transmitted. A move like this from the Star Network shows the popularity and demand for new international content. Also, the younger generation wants to move away from the usual saas-bahu and rona-dhona soaps, and are maturing to the international content.

As more and more homes get access to DTH systems across India and the wave of cable digitisation sweeps the nation, additional channels like the Star World Premiere HD might just emerge. This shift spells a win-win for the viewers and the broadcaster. But until the broadcaster gets a big bunch of spectators, current audience might have to pay a larger sum to access channels like Star World Premiere HD.
