You’ve probably seen all the promos for the upcoming NBC show, Smash, premiering on the network on February 6th. But NBC is practicing some synergy with its new majority owner, Comcast, by debuting the show early on Xfinity.
Smash will premiere three weeks early (1/16) on Xfinity on Demand, then two weeks early (1/23) on the Xfinity iPad app and Xfinity.com. Fans can already get sneak peek clips, profiles of the cast, and the official music video for the first single release from the show on Xfinity.
Last summer, the HBO show True Blood premiered its second episode of the season on Xfinity — along with HBO Go — a week early. But the “Smash” premiere of the show’s pilot episode is Xfinity’s biggest premiere to date, and most certainly not its last.
