How do I watch Super Bowl 2022 Canada?

While we’re still waiting on official word whether regular Canadian Super Bowl broadcasters CTV and TSN will air the game, so far the only confirmed platform to watch Super Bowl LVI in Canada is the streaming service DAZN. A subscription will run you $20 (Canadian), but with that, you get access to everything from NFL and MLB to tons of European soccer, tennis, basketball, and more. You can also cancel it anytime.

DAZN (pronounced Da-Zone, if you can believe it) is widely available on most platforms, including Roku, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Fire TV Stick, phones and tablets, web browsers, and game consoles.

When and if it is confirmed, TSN, CTV, and CTV2, “Canada’s home for football on television,” which have been carrying all the divisional playoff games, will likely make the game available through their platforms, including broadcast and digital sources such as TSN.ca, RDS.ca, the TSN app, and the RDS app, as well as subscribers to NFL RedZone.

Whether you’re using that nice new OLED you got for Christmas to watch Super Bowl LVI, or you’re using the game as an excuse to shop for a new one, you’re going to want to make sure you have the picture settings tweaked to make the most of it. To help you out, we’ve put together a guide on how best to set up your TV for the game that covers presets and even specific brightness and contrast settings you can use.

Happy viewing and enjoy the game!

How to watch Puppy Bowl 2023
Puppy Bowl info in a puppy bowl.

For some, Super Bowl 2023 is the second-biggest game around on February 12. That's because Animal Planet is back again with its annual Puppy Bowl (it’s Puppy Bowl XIX, if you’ve been keeping track, or the 19th iteration if you refuse to do Roman Numerals). Basically, it’s the Super Bowl for dogs.

This year’s event features 122 puppies, benefiting some 67 shelters and rescues from 34 states. It’s all in good fun — dogs aren’t doing anything untoward, though occasionally a penalty flag is thrown for accidentally leaving it all out on the field. There’s plenty of wrestling and tugging of toys, and lots of water breaks. And you’ll also learn the stories of the pups themselves, as well as the organizations that enable their adoption.

That's not quite entirely true, though, because you also can watch on NFL+, the league's own premium service, or on the gamer streaming service Twitch, which Amazon owns.
