Watching television with NLZIET

Watching television with NLZIET

Never miss an episode of your favorite television program with the streaming service NLZIET. This paid subscription service shows all Dutch TV programs via the web browser. Live, afterwards or ahead of time.

Don’t be afraid to miss a program on television. With NLZIET you never have to choose between two programs broadcasting at the same time. For example, you can watch Chateau Meiland, Ik Departure and the Voice of Holland final or any other program from NPO, RTL and SBS. This is how you create your own television evening. Programs can be viewed live, afterwards and in some cases you can already watch episodes ahead. A subscription costs 7.99 euros per month (price April 2021). The first month is free.

NLZIET does not only contain films and series that are now or soon on television. It is also possible, for example, to watch previous episodes of a series. View the different options via the homepage (tab Home). A list of movies and shows by category appears. For example, ‘Nu op TV’ lists the live broadcasts and ‘Most viewed’ shows the broadcasts with the highest viewing figures. There are also films that were on television or at NPO Plus.
