TV5 debuts in US

TV5, the fastest-growing broadcast network in the Philippines, has teamed up with DISH to bring its news and entertainment programs to Filipinos residing in the US beginning on May 23.

DISH is the leader in international programming in the US and the first pay-TV provider to carry TV5’s international channels. Through Pilipinas Global Network, the international affiliate of TV5, US-based Filipinos will have access to cutting-edge and trend-setting programming through its Kapatid TV5 and Aksyon TV International channels.

“TV5 International got another boost with this partnership with DISH. It signifies our continuing commitment to give Pinoy audiences the best entertainment and public service programming, wherever they may be in the world,” said Claro Ramirez, president and chief executive of PGN.

“DISH is pleased to be the first pay-TV provider to offer TV5 content in the US,” said Chris Kuelling, vice president of international programming at DISH.

Looks like you'll have to subscribe to DISH in order to see Nandito Ako on TV5 International. But if you aren't able to do that, according to jackryan and Fanscene, the Nandito Ako DVD will be available after it airs in the US, probably in July!
