Don't forget to replenish the snack cabinet because it's been a tradition for StarHub TV to offer free previews every National Day and this year is no different. Available until August 14, non-subscribers will have more than 80 channels to choose from via the StarHub Go streaming app or website, while existing customers can access over 130 other channels from their television sets. Highlights include the Singapore-shot movie adaptation of Kevin Kwan's Crazy Rich Asians (Aug 9 and 10, HBO) and the third oldest tennis tournament in the world, ATP 1000 Rogers Cup (until Aug 12, Hub Sports 1).

This remake featuring an ensemble Mainland Chinese cast will premiere on Hub VV Drama on National Day.
