Searching for your favourite TV show shouldn’t feel like trying to find “the one.” In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, if you’re looking for romance on TV, then don’t pay to watch all that other stuff. Raise your standards by getting channels you actually like with TELUS Optik™ TV theme packs.

We’ve listed our top 5 TV shows to help spice up your Valentine’s Day- just grab a box of chocolates and you’re set.
